The hosts were lovely and made some recommendations in the area for food. We didn’t have the opportunity to enjoy the patio and firepit due to weather. The room was small but clean and well attended. Perfect overnight stop on our road trip.

4 night stay

At check in the host was very friendly and suggested several places for breakfast and lunch. Room was pretty warm and window AC on full blast when I arrived. There was a steady stream of water, not just a drip from the bathtub tap. I tightened the handles and I think I stopped it. Bed was comfortable. TV worked. Nice towels. Quiet room except for trucks out on nearby highway.

Very accommodating and enthusiastic hosts/owners at the office. Very nice and clean room, although small queen, it had everything you'd expect at a larger motel room. We loved the knotty pine throughout the room.
