This was a really nice motel where a couple can spend their time comfortably for several days! Staff was welcoming and friendly (including the two dogs and hens). The room with kitchenette and bathroom was an appealing lay-out and very clean. It was a quiet location and we got a really good night sleep. Parking was free. All in all, a place that can be recommended. Would book it again when in the area.

Check in was super easy. It made my day to be greeted by to 2 sweet and gentle dogs. They will come to check in on you and get a few pets before heading to the next guest. The room was nice and although we were only there one night the accommodations would have be excellent for a longer stay.

Very spacious. A kitchen with a stove, fridge, MW. It's a suite with living room divided by a sliding door. The owner is super nice that showed us great viewing sights and informed us the road closures more than 100 miles away. Highly recommended for shorter and longer trip.
