Everything was perfect! The room was ideal. The view was amazing. The food was good in the restaurant. The water in the room was stinky but that's well water during a drought I guess. Otherwise if I had more time the amenities were wonderful.

This place basically served the purpose of somewhere to sleep for the night but there were minor issues. The wifi and the tv did not work. There was no hot water. A used face cloth was left in the bathtub from a previous guest. We found a set of headphones from a previous guest which alerted us to the lack of cleaning under the bed.

Liked: Room comfort
The bed was comfortable, but the bathroom left a lot to be desired. There was a lot of wear and tear on the room. It was fine for a one night stay, but I wouldn’t want to stay long. Having access to the river and kayaks made up for how run down the motel looked.

Beautiful place

We came on a day when the on property restaurant is closed (Sunday and Monday). The owner was very prompt and sent us details for self check in. We had a big room with two queen beds. Very comfortable beds and linens. We had access to the river and their canoes and kayaks. The owner went above and beyond in helping us out with an item that we forgot in room after checkout. They are a blessed and a kind soul.

Average experience, Won't recommend Pros: - Nice location - Quiet - Clean bedding and bathroom Cons: - Dirty coffeemaker (Shared in Pictures) - Hot water smelled pungent. - Restaurant closed on Sunday is a problem considering isolated nature of the place. -Window drapes were short from either side which compromises privacy. - No staff throughout the stay. (Self check in and check out) - Gaps in windows which lead bugs inside the room. - No electric kettle provided considering they provide tea bags.
