We have stayed here a couple of times with some good experiences and more bad experiences. The owners can sometimes be very rude as if they are the only Motel there is and you have to stay there.

What a great find! The room was clean and very cozy with an electric fireplace for a cool fall evening. Everything about the... More

It has been recently renovated and had lovely clean rooms with fridge, microwave and wifi, a rocking chair, a separate sort of stove heater (didn't... More
