Arrived at 11 told check in was 3pm, gentlemen at reception abrupt and in way welcoming
We had a really nice stay. Room was clean and got a little milk and cookies when we arrived which I always like. There were a lot of activities to do at the motel. The wifi wasn’t the best though, but that was the only down side we found.

The private patio , spa, and mini golf course were great although a one night’s stay prevented me from enjoying the latter two items. Maybe next trip….
Spacious, clean room with a giant jacuzzi tub. Loved that we could open up the large window in the bathroom to the private patio space. We enjoyed the pool and mini-golf amenities. Very family friendly. Location was great, short drive to everything we wanted to see.
