Our room was across the street from the lake and the view was pleasant. We had dinner at the restaurant next door, and it was a wonderful dining experience. The room included a full size refrigerator and two beds.

This motel is made up of several buildings going down toward a small lake. The motel is relatively old, but rooms are clean and spacious. They need some remodeling and small repairs, but nothing serious. I recommend taking a couple of clothes pins to secure the curtains while keeping them above the AC unit. The restaurant/bar next door is worth visiting at least once

The room was very outdated and needed some repairs: toilet and sink was very low to the ground, no plug for the bathtub: over all I think that the cost was way over priced for the shape of the room:
