It was very clean, older fixtures of course but the price was right. There was only a microwave to heat water , however going for coffee at the local coffee stop led us to find out about the beautiful scenic Dam so no complaints!!

The family who own this motel go above and beyond every single day for all their guests. Very welcoming as if the guests are family. They always make sure we have everything we need and encourage us to call the front desk at any time of the night if we need anything like blankets for example. The motel is always so clean and comfortable , beautiful scenery. This is the only motel I’ll go to in the area and prefer it over the newer builds/hotels . We will continue to book there. Thanks to you all for making our stay enjoyable.
