Great place to stay.
Definitely would stay again. Liked everything about the room but the bed. The mattress was a bit hard for me and I didn’t sleep well but still wouldn’t stop us from staying there again.

A small beautiful motel away from the crowded city. But close enough to be considered Gaylord. The rooms were clean, manager was nice, they had a nice TV and bed plus a fridge. Everything I needed really. I will stay here again for sure. There’s only a few rooms. So not all noisy!! 9/10!

Wonderful and quaint motel. Bob, the owner is kind and caring. Everything is clean and mostly updated while maintaining its rustic up north charm. The bathroom is really small, while adequate, but very difficult to maneuver around. It didn’t ruin the trip, but something to note for families or tall visitors.
