Arrived in the late evening after a long drive and the staff was incredibly friendly and warm! Stayed here with my dog and the room was nice and spacious. WiFi was pretty funky at times, but signal in general was really great in the area.

We had a great overnight stay and slept extremely well in our room. There are a number of others all around due to a dirt biking event but it was quiet and everyone was extremely courteous. Having the restaurant there was great since we were tired from travel and just wanted to sit in our rooms and relax before bed. Would def stay again if in the area!

Room was clean but very rustic with 1970's used (some broken) decor and furniture. The restaurant was convenient and decent food and staff. Restaurant seamed like a popular local spot.

This place needs help. Carpeting in room was torn and dirty, the dark wall paneling looked like it was from 1976, there was mold in the shower tile, and general finish of the sink area was of poor quality and dirty. On the plus side, the front desk lady was very sweet, and the room had a nice little fridge and was nicely sized. Beds were comfortable.

The room was nice clean fairly spacious. I got the master suite with the hot tub. The hot tub is in like a separate room which is fine. The room was kind of outdated but cabin style, so I guess it was fitting.

Checking in was super easy! The receptionist was very friendly and helpful when we couldn’t get the tv to turn on. She actually came to our room to help us figure it out. The remote doesn’t turn on the the tv you must turn tv on manually.

The sweetest host!

My fiancé and I stayed here right before our wedding and it was absolutely perfect. The staff was so sweet and welcoming, and went above and beyond. From the room to the diner it was the perfect stay. We will be coming back!!

Asked for a handicap room for my parents. Was told because it was ordered on expedia they could not accommodate us. If they were full this would not have bothered me. But 75 percent empty and put my parents on the second floor.

I noticed that the remote controls were dirty. The beds were comfortable. The door is a key entry and there is no 2nd lock on the hotel door. While the room was no smoking there were cigarette butts on the walkway entering our hotel room. Along the walkway there were garbage cans sitting on the walkway. While the garbage cans were useful, it took away from the curb appeal.
