You won’t regret it “not a single letter”

Amazing rooms and service. Owners and staff are super nice and always helpful. The premises were always clean and free of any unwanted critters or bugs. They have a restaurant there that is finishing up and looks so good can’t wait to come back for business trip again and get to eat there. 5 stars!!

It's really just a place where you want to just sleep and relax. The bar and grill, and the pool were closed. And there is no directv. The rooms are very well kept. And outstandingly clean. The customer service is absolutely outstanding as well. The only reason why I would give this place a 3.5 star is because the amenities are not open including the pool.

This is primarily a contruction/short time worker barracks camp. The units are new, clean and as advertised. Bring your own knives as they are not provided with the silverware in the kitchen. The AC is very good.

Although it says resort it is actually a man camp. Towels smelled like mildew and office was closed when I was going to ask for replacements. We didn't get much sleep due to the loud noises and arguing outside. We will not return.

Unexpected but pleasant experience

This property is designed as Crew Housing, but since the oil exploration in the area is not as busy, they recently started branching out to general public. (It's definitely not a resort). The set-up is different from a regular hotel; instead, it's double-wide trailers. But they are very clean, and very comfortable. Everyone was quiet and polite. I would stay here again! However, the website says there is a restaurant on-site, which was closed down when I was there, so don't depend on that for meals.
