The unit was worn and in need of refurbishments. Bed was comfortable with a great view but the room was stuffy and hot with only 2 small high windows and a smaller fan to provide airflow. The drive way was rough with tight windy bends. Would I stay there again...no.

Retro Motel Experience. Liked the convenience of a retro motel with restaurant - ideal for overnight stay during long road trip. No glamour, no splendour, no gorgeous landscaping; but helpful staff and a clean room.

Besides the tall trees growing in front of our unit, we had good surrounding views. The unit itself was top notch, cozy, clean and tidy. I especially loved the wall units above each bedside drawer! So so convenient! The downside - double bed was two king singles pushed together which had an uncomfortable “dip” in the middle. The driveway up to our unit was steep (ok) but had loose shingle and uneven and needed abit of tlc. Otherwise, great place to stay and would stay again.

The property was ok the room was smaller then expected and the bathroom door hit the bed so only opened 1/3 of the way. The wifi didnt work apparently this is common according to staff due to a provider issue.
