8/10 Good
"We stayed in 1 of the motel rooms. It was very nice, roomy, clean & quiet. Chairs just outside the door on the porch were great for sitting to read. We were there just for a stopover on our way to Moosehead Lake but it would be great for an extended stay."

"Great location - rooms are small, but decent. Not great for a romantic getaway as the walls are thin and you can hear everything in the rooms around you and from the bathroom. Beds are fine, but pretty hard. Lights behind beds could use dimmer bulbs, they were super bright."
