Though we live just about a hour from the wedding we attended, we wanted somewhere to stay for the night. It is a quaint little lodge that is quiet. We loved that they offered food til 1:00 a.m. after we'd gotten in from the reception late. Just FYI the pizzas are huge and delicious! Breakfast had a good selection of grab and go items as well as others. Suited us just fine. The staff was very kind. Our room was one of the economy smaller ones facing the river, in a distance, where we saw many turkies on the waters edge. It was beside the train tracks but when a train passed by you could hardly tell. No whistle blowing and it was quite cool to see so many coal train cars. Again, a small room with a TV, bathroom and chair, but suited our needs of a cozy place to crash for the night. Comfy beds and affordable. We would stay here again.

Nice place out of the way when visiting Springfield. The economy room has no dresser or a table to work on but the common area just off the room was doable. The lounge was nice and the limited menu was very good
