I came in late in the evening (~2315) and had to call to check in. Wasn’t what I am used to but it was easy - called, got the door code for my room and that was it. Rooms are warm and clean. Nothing fancy. But a place to put your head for the night. Check out was the same - called at about 1000 and was just told I was checked out and to lock the door. I didn’t see any staff but the staff on the phone were polite and helpful. Would stay again if I was passing through.

The staff were very friendly. The property is older and so should be a little bit cheaper. The food portion were really small for the cost of and they need to have better bear control. The place itself was very clean and while I was there, it was quiet.

The cabin we stayed in was in need of a renovation and not as nice as the photo in their ad. There was garbage in the yard, clearly from an animal getting in the trash that needed to be cleaned up. We went to the restaurant, but they were offering takeout only.
