"The motel was clean but very dated. The room was very small but adequate. There is no window from the room to see the parking lot where you are parked. There is however a "back door" at the motel with chairs on a little patio and a lovely view. The ice machine was broken and no ice available. It's right off the highway and easy to get to and a short walk to down town."

"I’ll start by saying that I would have no problem going back to this property, BUT for me the cost didn’t align with the property and would likely be the reason I don’t go back. Everything is dated, everything. It was clean but didn’t have a clean feel, too many decades soaked into everything. Small things like shampoo/conditioner/body wash not being provided irks me cause of the cost to stay here. Rooms were pretty quiet which is a positive thing. The room was just drab, not bad but not good either, dated and mish-mash of odd choices of decor (some modern, some second-hand looking, no artwork, old yellowed wall paper, etc). The restaurant had odd hours but the food was decent enough, though overpriced, and of course a very dated look. The exterior is worn and drab, and has carpeted walkways outside that are not kept up. The pool and hot tub was nice, the game room was pathetic. The lake and paddle boats were nice. The area around the lake was very pretty with the landscaping. The observation tower is closed for renovations."

"The beds were comfortable and really clean, the staff so nice and helpful. Breakfast was clean and plentiful it was the typical cereal bagels toast hard boiled eggs and waffles. The grounds is under alot of renovations which it needs from obvious aging however I see the progression and based on price and staff and them trying we would definitely return. The cleaners need to spend more time cleaning the rooms because the carpet needed a better vacum and the bathroom needed a good bleach scrubbing however we were staying one night so we skipped the shower. It's a cheap stay with no bugs so we appreciated it. I can see when renovations are done it will be a nice place to stay at."
