Staff was exceptional - I left my blood sugar measuring machine at the motel when we continued on our trip. I called the motel and they had put it aside so I was able to pick it up when we returned home. So helpful! Room was clean, parking ample and the dog walking area was large. Room was very quiet even there is a busy road close to motel.

The hotel and rooms were clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. My only "complaint" is that this hotel is NOT on the lake. The photos are mis-representing. Overall, not a bad no-frills hotel though.

The staff was so friendly! We had a problem figuring out the TV and they came right up to our room and worked on it until they got the channels to come in. The room was very large and included a kitchenette which came with dishes and utensils. The beds were firm, but not rock hard, or worn. We have an 85 lb dog and he was welcomed! Plenty of walking in the area too.
