A not so cheap motel that offers access to this part of Lake of the Ozarks. The shower was disgusting and I had to go to the gas station and buy some cleaner to clean the shower myself. The room was otherwise clean, but kind of frustrating when you have to clean pubes from the shower. You check in before you ever get there and you don’t actually see a live person. The place looks full just because it’s the only hotel in the area that gives you good proximity to the local marinas. Motel was $160, for this area and this time of the year seems a little pricey.

Check-in was easy due to the room's door code. Amazingly quiet room even as the property is on Hwy 5. Very comfortable beds, pillows and whole room! We will be back if ever in the area! Awesome restaurant just North on Hwy 5 called Val's. A must stop for breakfast!!

I've been staying here for years, this is the first time since the remodel/new owners. Updates are nice- floors are much better, new toilets and sinks. It was very clean and comfy. Much less personable, no esrly check in available, no response from staff that are no longer in the office. Worth the price increase? Probably not. Will continue to stay here as its very convenient to where i am visiting.

Recent Stay

A better phone number needs to be posted on the property in case you arrive and didn't receive the text or email with virtual check in information like what happened to us, Room floor was very dirty. Our socks would be all dirty from walking on the floor. Location was great for us and the fire pit and grill and tables was a nice touch.

Motel with hotel prices

Would suggest adding more large towels for 4 people in a room and fixing the ac unit in 105. We noticed the room seemed to be updated recently so understand there might have been a few glitches. Overall a decent stay.

Place is clean and comfortable. No staff on site so when we had water issues, only could leave a voice mail. Should be able to get hold of a live person to sort these things out promptly

Pleasantly surprised to find out the property went under a complete remodel since booking the stay. Rooms were cute and quaint. Beds were very comfortable. Facility was able to accommodate a specific request I had. Loved the idea of the retro fridge and microwave, however our fridge wouldn’t get cold enough to chill our drinks. That would be the only minor issue we came about during our stay. The outside area with the grills and fire pit were very cute.

The stay was exactly what I expected it to be. The staff was friendly. Only issue was a broken blind but not bad enough that it didn’t do its job. Overall, great overnight place to stay when traveling.

Good choice!

Our room was very clean and it was newly renovated in beautiful colors that created a relaxing atmosphere. The television offered many channels. The owner was very helpful in letting us know how and when to get into our room. The beds were comfortable and the water in the shower was nice and warm! The location and price were good for what we were doing. Highly recommend for a quiet night's sleep.

Updated motel

The hotel looks to be somewhat updated recently. The vinyl flooring needs a good cleaning and the ac unit in 105 is very loud when sleeping. Beds and pillows are fairly comfy. I would suggest the rooms be serviced every other day instead of every 3rd since there are not enough towels for 4 people. We appreciated the ice machine and coffee in the nearby lounge.
