Worried about noise

We were worried the first night of our stay about the noise coming from a group having a "family reunion" accompanied by heavy drinking and the band playing about 400 feet away at a waterfront bar. But everything quieted down by 10.30. Same for the following night.

Been renting for over 9 years. If you are into fishing, this is best fishing spot. Also, rooms have full kitchen. My family and I have a great time spending time together catching fish, hanging out and cooking family meals.

Will be going back

Rooms were very clean and maid service was to the point. Security was exemplary with personnel watching the parking lot, pool, dock, and grounds in general. This was our second trip here and look forward to staying there again. Beaches, fishing areas, restaurants are all within close distance. People staying at the motel were also quite friendly.

Stay was great! During my check in i asked if a first floor room was available, i was told no. But people who checked in after asked the same question and their rooms were switched. Frustrating to say the least, but we still enjoyed staying here. Security guard at night is also a little intense….

Relaxing weekend.

Lovely weekend with hubby. Was switched to an accessible harbor view room on check in which was great for disabled spouse. Accessible room does not have a full kitchen just a kitchenette but we made due. Loved fishing right out the back of the property. Housekeeping was exceptional. All In all very relaxing.

Overall, it was OK. It's an older property, but the location is great and the building is in fairly good shape. The rooms were large; decor was dated, but it was clean. The most frustrating part was being met with blank stares from the desk clerk at check-in and when we asked for a couple of towels. Definitely didn't feel like our business was appreciated.

The hotel itself needs some makeover- pillows are rock hard bed okay our TV never worked for the two days we were here. The staff is really nice they did try to fix the TV but just didn’t work. Parking is tight if you have a truck. Would not be coming back

Great stop!!

The only issue we had at all were the way way too soft mattresses and the way too hard pillows. The giant foam mattress was like sleeping on a marshmallow- zero support. But staff was awesome, location is fantastic, loved the Tiki bar next door and felt very secure. Rooms are dated but clean, and more than we needed. Bonus is being in the Freebie car service to get you all over town. As for the parking issue- there isn’t one. One car per room people. Deal with it.

Loved the view from the room. Bed was very comfortable. Restaurant next door was convenient and had great food and music. Rooms could use some updating. Sliding glass door was very hard to open and close. AC was not very cold. Left a hanger on the door for maid service and came back to the hanger being on the inside of the door knob but room was still dirty. No bathrooms to use at the pool. I asked the security guard if there were bathrooms but he said no and didn't speak barely any English. It looked like you needed a code. Loved the location but not so much the property.

Great quiet place the only thing that I did not care for is. All the dogs that you should be able to fish on they have them completely gated up for the boaters now. It would be really great to be able to go out on one of the dogs and fish instead of being so close to the bank. They have definitely changed over the years that will probably be my last time going down there.
