Great owner! He seemed very passionate about the recent refresh of the property and it shows. Great touches throughout. There awesome marketing materials and the little amenities throughout the Elkton Lodge are thoughtful. Great place to lay your head and support a local mom and pop establishment when in this area.

Great Stay, Quiet and Friendly Staff

Very nice accomodations and friendly staff. Drew at front desk provided some great recommendations for food choices and wine tasting. Room attendants were on top of things keeping our room stocked with towels and tidied up. Quiet on property.

While this lodge is essentially a motel, the room was spacious and well appointed. It was clean and pleasant to stay in, almost like a hotel. They were kind enough to give me a late check out, which allowed me to finish my business and return to pick up my bags. I only wish they had an iron in the room.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. But the room itself was a bit rundown, there was a roach in the room (small but there), and it looks like they are understaffed. This is an adequate place to stay but no more.

Simplicity

Friendly staff, visually there,quiet,door latch for safety missing. Clean overall,little odor of urine. New pillows a must. But quaint. Stay again if had to. Looks like its being cleaned up in that area. All places have something,so staff being aware and on site was good.working whole time i was there to maintain which is a positive look!!
