What a great stay! We arrived very late so wrote to the staff when booking (in the amenities section) to text us about getting into the cabin so very late, and they did. And getting in was a breeze. Room is cute and cozy. Air conditioning worked perfectly, and so did the hot water for the shower. I assume the bed is a foam mattress, everything was new. Parking right along the cabin. The sink really was difficult to use, but we managed just fine. The WiFi for the TV went in and out, but with patience we were fine.

The cabin was a little bit smaller than expected (photos on the website felt a little bit bigger) but everything was clean and comfortable. It was great having air-conditioning because we were there during a very hot week. We planned ahead and brought a an electric frying pan and an air fryer grill so that we could save a little bit of money and cook in our room so having picnic tables out on the grounds was wonderful to be able to take our food outside to eat. The only downside was the Wi-Fi was very weak, we were not able to use the TV at all because it was connected to Wi-Fi. Thankfully there was a great thunderstorm that we could watch as we shut off all the lights and encourage us to tell some scary stories to each other! My one suggestion would be to invest in a mesh system for the Wi-Fi so that the signal can reach all of the rooms and cabins successfully. Definitely helpful for parents like me that travel with children on the spectrum.

Upon arrival I was very nervous since the grass was not mowed, the business sign is faded and the pool has the cover caving in and doesn’t look opened for several years. The office is a mess with very limited hours. However, the little (very) cabin was all new inside. Bed was a comfortable firm memory foam. Bathroom is very small with a sink you couldn’t wash your face without making a flood on the floor. If your just needing a clean, comfy bed with a shower this is fine. No WiFi working took another” star “ off

The room and bathroom were spacious. My only suggestion is there should be more than one lamp in the main room. A lamp is especially needed near the dining table.

This motel gave us retro vibes which made us have plentyof laughs. It was an older property, but that for us gave it a unique charm. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff did everything they could when dealing with a power issue. We would stay again.

The room was simple and clean. Kate was super friendly and was always available if we needed anything. We went during off season, so the hotel was updating, and the town had limited dining options. It is less than a mile away from the Wild Center which is walkable, so very convenient.

A real bargain, clean and comfortable. Minor things like no bathmat, no shower cap, no mugs for the coffee maker, no caffeinated coffee were less important than the new king size mattress and clean bathroom. I'd give it two to three stars.

This hotel needs lots of updates. The property manager was not there when we checked in but left the key in the room. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean but overall it was so dark with one lamp in the room that it felt uninviting. The grounds were unkempt and there was a pool that was closed and looked like it had been closed for years.

The buildings haven't been renovated since the 1970' s i think. In spite of that it had a kind of charm to it. We spoke to the owner and he plans on upgrading this winter. The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. There waa a very bright outside light that was on all night. That was the most irritating thing. It was nice to not stay ay a chain motel. It had charm. Had chairs outside the rooms to sit in at night (like Mayberry)! )

This older motel is clearly being remodeled but has a long way to go. Bathroom outlet didn't work, no hand soap, carpets stained and nightstand inadequate. On the positive side the owner was friendly, bed comfortable and location to hiking convenient.

Booked a cabin. Beds were nice and comfy. Staff very friendly and helpful. Bathroom quite small but clean. AC/heater function well. Conviennent Fridge and microwave. Strong smell of popcorn in the microwave. Under bed floor hasn't seen a vacuum or a mop for a while. Surrounding need a bit of maintenance: broken chairs, empty bottles and cigarettes butt all around. Bedside table would be a great addition.

Room #4 is disgusting. Could not stay there. Texted manager and she said she would grant refund but we would have to contact Expedia. Can't find a phone # so we can contact Expedia. We want a full refund, we had to search for another place to stay at the last minute. The picture of the room does not show the horrible condition the room is in and the bathroom which is worse. Owner said they have remodeled the cabins and are in the process of remodeling the rest of the rooms. Ask for a remodeled room only! I have photos and will release them publicly if I do not get a FULL refund immediately.I don't want to ruin someone's business but this room should not be booked to anyone while it is in this condition. The house that was booked by a couple I met there was in great shape. If all rooms and cabins are brought to those standards there would be no problems. Someone at Expedia please contact me and fix this ASAP!

The room was clean, the towels were rough and dingy. The free WiFi” did not work. We had a deluxe cabin that had no chairs or small table to sit at, the closet had no bar or hangers to place our clothes. So for the stay we lived out of our suitcase. The microwave was located in a closet along with the dorm fridge which kept the food at proper temp. One of the 2 closet shelf was broken. The non-deluxe cabins had 2 fire pits and Adirondack chairs but none in the deluxe cabin section. When we tried to leave the office was closed so we could not drop off the key. The office did not have a key drop box. Check out is 10am but no one in the office at 9 to take your key. We went to breakfast and upon returning to the cabin the office door was answered by the woman who checked us in and she notified us that the office doesn’t open early and we should have been told to just leave the key in the room. And then said “sorry”. If you rely on TV or the internet forget it. They have Roku but no instruction guide. When Inasked if they had an ice machine I was told that the owner hadn’t gotten to it yet and the pool was not open. They appear to be trying to renovate the area but boy oh boy the guest should be made aware on the website that they are under restoration.
