Very comfortable and clean place to stay in for our trip to Joplin.
The check in was easy, but that needs to be specied on the website that there is no one here and u have to text for an access code. There were also no towels supplied and only 1 wash cloth. Overall the place is clean and tidy and bed was comfy. Crack in the shower floor though that I wasn’t expecting so the shower floor gave a little.
Unable to check in. Check-in desk door indicates they have no check-in times on Sundays.
Called, left message, texted, messaged in app, drivey around property, waited over an hour. Could not check in. Still no response even the next day.
I was a bit apprehensive when I arrived as there is no front desk as such. I called the hotel number and within a minute or two I received a text with instructions and a PIN code for the door. Although the room was small it was very cosy and had everything you need. I really liked my stay here and would definitely stay again. Be sure to visit the food place next door, their burgers are the best I have ever had.

Terrible .
Made a reservation for 2 days and they never sent me a code or instructions to get into the cabin. I called, and left voicemail, texted and emailed several times and never got a reply back . I had to get a hotel room and also cancelled my bank card so the transaction wouldn’t go through !

Disliked: Staff & service
When I went there for check in front desk was closed. I had to call multiple times and left voice mails. After 20-25 mins I got a text with check in instructions. I was disappointed with service. The room is small. Two adults can stay.
No one was available for check in, a total fiasco. Smells of smoke in room and I was able to get a different room. No hairdryer. Shower curtain liner smelled and was filthy. I never even showered because it was so bad. No place to hang anything unless you are 6 feet. A truly horrible experience from the moment I arrived.
I checked in and within an hour of arriving i found a bed big in my cottage. I notified management immediately and text a photo of the bed big and they told me i would get a full refund. They now will not respond.
It was a cute and clean place to stay and we may have liked and enjoyed it more if I wasn’t so close to the highway. The bed was also very uncomfortable. I believe the bed is very old. I had to ask for an extra towel 3 times and never got one until I went to the office myself and was fortunate enough to find someone there at the time.
Property was nice, clean and close to where we needed to be Saturday morning. Check in instructions lacked details on locating Unit 11.

What I didn’t like was that I wasn’t able to check in! I waited around for 1.5 hrs (during that time there was another couple also waiting stating they had been there for hours & ended up leaving) after working 12 hours.
