Check in was quick and easy for 2 rooms next to each other. Our rooms were spacious and having lots of counter apace was very convenient. Parking was easy, even for a very large Suburban, and 2 large fans were provided as the temperature was very warm, but we stayed comfortable with these.

It's a good motel, clean, quiet, close to the lake. No extra amenities. I asked for no housekeeping but someone went in when I wasn't there one day and made up the room. On hotels.com, it says there's a garden, vegetable garden and vegetarian food, vegan breakfast, none of which was true. Still, a good place to stay close to the lake.

They had the worst box spring mattresses i have ever slept on. Did not get a good sleep which is the primary reason we book stays rather than sleeping in the car.
