Good location for getting to trails. Liked having coffee machine in room. Nice to have microwave and refrigerator (although freezer in bad need of defrosting). Appreciated having free Hulu (on large TV). Good lighting. Price reasonable for area. Frequent (online) communication from staff. Took “forever” to get hot water - and even then only warm.

Overall a very pleasant stay
We really do prefer face to face interaction which we were unable to get with staying here. We understand technology has extensive capabilities but we are "oldschool" and enjoy being able to get input from staff on places to go to eat etc. When we arrived there were multiple pieces of small very curly hair on the wall and the hair dryer in the bathroom. Other than the bathroom the room seemed clean. I would suggest putting a garbage in the bathroom also.

Excellent proximity to cross-country skiing on Lake Flower (across the street) and a rail trail (behind the property). Also within easy walking distance of restaurants.

The room was hot and it was very difficult to control the thermostat. The parking was in a very muddy area and when we got out of the vehicle you had to stand in mud which led to getting mud all over our clothes.

Reasonably up to date, thin-walled, road-side motel at twice the cost. We were in a pinch, they weren’t sold out, now I know why. Not a terrible spot but very overpriced.
