This is an old motel that lacks alot of the amenities that some travelers deem necessary. We are NOT those travelers.. place was clean, comfortable, inexpensive, and had a great staff. All of this AND the world's largest pheasant! Our kind of place... thanks for the great stay. 😁

After a day if motorcycling, it was nice to have a warm welcome, cool room, and a beautiful lake to walk around.
I haven't been here long yet, but my only complaint is that there is no vent in the bathroom.

A/C was not on when we arrived. Had to ask for bath towels for each person in our family. Mini-fridge had not been plugged in so it was not cold.

This property should not be part of the Expedia listings unless many updates are made! 40 years ago has come and gone, and the property has been allowed to deteriorate!

The person who checked me in announced my room number while there were two men in the lobby. These men then followed me out and watched me enter my room. We did not feel safe there. Our room was dirty from the sheets to the bathroom. There was hair in the bed and in the bathroom. The AC did not work. I would not suggest this motel to anyone.

The place was old and run down and far to costly for what the room was like.
The breakfast was good, the staff were great and accomodating, but the place needs a makeover for the price that we paid

It appeared to be very tired and used without any attention to upkeep. While it was clean and convenient and breakfast OK there is little to recommend it. I would not stay there again or recommend it to others.
