"Wonderful views of mountains and nature "

It was a very comfortable stay. Quiet clean typical old 70’s motel. I enjoyed it. Very close to family and all activities. My granddaughter loved swimming and walking around the grounds.

Solid motor lodge. Pros: very clean; AC worked great and the filter was clean; the bedding was high quality; the pool and hot tub were nice and well-maintained Cons: despite being the only guests in the hotel, our rooms weren't ready at the stated check-in time; the door knob on the inside of the bathroom door was missing; there was no shampoo in the shampoo dispenser

Blast from the past 1960’s vibe with blue toilet, bath and sink! Comfortable beds. Quaint little town. Has breakfast at Polly’s Pancake House just up the road.

We had a nice night away from home. The manager called us ahead of time to make sure we knew what room we were in. He was very friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. It was great being only a half hour away from Santas village so we didn't have to travel far in the morning. Also the price was better than other places! Win! Thank you!

All the outlets, plug something in, it falls right out!. Rugs needed vacuuming. Screen door need to get replaced could not open, which did get done! No owner on site! Didn't like that.maintenece guy not never very eager to get some things done! My friend and I went out for the day, asked Seth to lock up when he was done, he left our cabin UNLOCKED! cobwebs every where. Dusty, really dirty windows, some did not lock. Baseboards were gross. The outside around the cabin was rotting. I was really disappointed, especially after paying almost $700.00 dollers for 3 nights!!!! I think I should get some money back!!! All the pictures of the motel and cottages very deserving!!!

"Cozy and quiet, just don’t go for the hot tub"

6.0

We were looking for a budget friendly and pet friendly place In the area for a quick stay on a hiking trip. We were greeted by a worker who appeared somewhat frustrated with us that we had dogs, even though we mentioned in our booking that we were traveling with two. We chose this location because of the hot tub, but were disappointed shortly after arriving when we found out there isn’t one. Despite that frustration, the place was quiet, the location is pretty, and the beds were comfortable.
