It was the nearest, walkable motel to City Marina, where I kept my boat. The clean room was fairly basic, but had everything I needed and then some. The bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and the AC/heat worked well. In addition there was a microwave and a small fridge.

Booked a lake view room, and there was nothing lake view about it. Was put in a tiny room that faced the parking lot. The room was disgusting, the bed wasn’t even made and it smelt gross. When we asked for a refund, the property manager refused. I DO NOT recommend this motel.

The room was dated but clean. The riverview room was pleasant, but lots of smokers in the corridor which made it difficult to sit outside. Also difficult to load room from the parking lot, had to haul coolers and luggage through the hotel and down stairs.

I like how you could park in front of your door, benches outside yoyr door fir you to see and see the lake. How it was easy to walk down to the lake, a little veach behind the motel. What i didn't like was the stained carpet, the plcement of the A/C unit hard to get fresh air to us it was blocked by a wall. The last thing was that there was no storage in the bathroom or in the room to put ur clothes just a closet with about 8 hangers. The person running the place was amazing he accommodated us to my physical needs.

Pricey room if you have pets
No power in room as they shut it off. Had to let them know. The furniture was outdated, fridge and microwave were dirty and mold? In the bathroom. And was to be 2 Queens but one was a double. Power out in town on 2nd day so left early. Tried one restaurant and was disappointed with food and wait.
Pups thought the bed was comfy 😊

Great location on the water with a beach access.
A nice place to stay. A small little beach right behind the hotel too, as well as a damn with some rapids for some cool pictures. A restaurant right beside hotel. We stayed in the king suite, was spacious and comfortable. Recommended for sure.

Smell and conditions are awful
The smell in the office, the room, and the buildings is disgustingly gross. We saw a huge rat outside. We wouldn’t eat or drink in the room because of the condition of it. We will never stay here again. It was the only thing with rooms so we took it because we had to.
