Lovely couple running the property now. It's being fixed up after many years of disrepair, and now is clean and simple. Rooms are super comfortable. Easy access to the river and you can sit on your back porch to watch the sun set. Lovely.

For the price we expected a good nights sleep but because the blinds were broken and someone tried to fix it with a fishing hook so it’s been like that a while. The light outside the window was on all night so we did not get a good sleep. I recommend they invest in some privacy blackout curtains. Also the pillows looked a bit stained I suggest pillow covers that zip up. There’s a big stain in the carpet right when you come in that gives a bad impression right of the start. It smelt like chemical.

Weekend stay

Very outdated room, it had been cleaned but not a recent deep clean, paint peeling bad around bathtub area, coffee pot was not cleaned well. It definitely needs more updates for the price they are charging. Tried to check out a day early but was told no since reservations made through hotels.com

We stayed here over the 4th of July holiday weekend and there was an awesome display of fireworks that we could watch right from the pool! That was very nice and we didn’t have to go anywhere. We also liked that it had a marina so we could leave our boat in the water right in front of our room. However, the area around the docks and getting from your boat to the hotel were not very good. It was very hard to navigate your way from the boat slips back up to the hotel. And everything was rickety and falling apart or non existent. The fences were falling down and looked like if you touched them they would fall over and nothing looked or felt very safe. No clear walk ways or docks to get from one side to the other. Definitely needs to be updated. The room was very very damp! A whole lot of moisture in the room and our clothes and the sheets felt wet. The room had a smell too. Not sure if it was from the moisture or from the indoor outdoor type carpet that looked fairly new. The room did feel and look clean though other than the dampness. Nice view from the balcony. The pool was pretty big, clean, and clear but the pool deck and chairs could use some cleaning. It was convenient and affordable. It could be a really nice place with a little updating and TLC!

Bring cleaning supplies

Well, the floor was unbelievably dirty, my husbands socks were black for the dirt on the floor, we went to dollar general and bought a swifter and two packs of wet scrubbers, some pots to fix the bed, center bars of bed frame wheels were broke off. Not enough towels and outside light shined in our room like the sun. Toilet seat was stained with orange something, I cleaned it as well as the rest of the room twice, and the floor three times to get it clean. If it wasn’t for the view and the quiet we would have taken the loss and went to a different hotel, finding the office would have been easier if the sign said mooring hotel office, it said mooring marina office. The ice machine was not working and one washer for the laundry that had enough room for four pairs of jeans. The employees were very helpful. Needed card keys to get into gate to do laundry, a different key card to get to do laundry,
Noticed the bed looked not level, sat on the bed and the center was lower than the outside, looked under the bed and the wheels were missing from the center as well as bent. Did not feel like walking a block to complain and move all of our stuff, so.
