4th of July Getaway

I booked it last minute and I am so glad this place was available because it was perfect! Everyone was so friendly, like we had been friends for years. After walking out of our room we were steps away from the sandy private beach or you could venture over to the public beach for more space. They had everything you needed in case you forgot something, like kayaks, canoes, life jackets, and paddle boats. Even and ice cream shop for those hot days! Me and my two kids loved it and will definitely come back!!

Updated mom and pop motel!

The hotel was just what we expected. Very budget friendly. We especially appreciated the barrel sauna/swim! The place is old but has been nicely updated. Tight rooms like most of the old mom and pop motels. Very clean. We would stay again.
