The room was very clean. Bed linens showed some wear, but everything was nice and clean including the bath room. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful. The breakfast was minimal, but overall I thought this was a great value.

Soco Falls

Wander amid wilderness to discover a majestic double waterfall. Climb down rocks and stand in front of the milky white curtain of the falls.

Soco Falls
An incredible motorcycle museum! I found out about the place after seeing it on various tv shows, American Pickers, Chasing Classic Cars, and Jay Leno's Garage, included. Once you get inside, you really don't know how you are going to take it all in. It is huge! All of the motorcycles run and during our visit, the curator was starting and taking random bikes out for a spin. A must see!
