6/10

If you're looking for the usual ammenities, this place isn't for you. Coffee, but no cream/sugar packets, no hair dryer, no ironing board, etc. It's bare bones and overpriced. BUT, it is VERY clean and the young lady running things is very sweet.

Old property run by nice people. Everything worked but in "needs replacement condition."

10/10

The room was nice and had a nice home like feel, the beds were super comfortable and the room was very clea. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Pool was the perfect place to relax and escape the heat of the day. As a solo traveler this one one of the only hotels I will stay at alone. I feel very safe there. It was very quiet, and conveniently located near local attractions, hiking and plenty of options to choose from for dinner. 10/10 would recommend staying here.

While the room was clean, it reeked of cigarette smoke and cat urine. The walls were so thin we could hear people moving around upstairs all night making it hard to sleep.

Very rustic. Looks like they are trying to improve the inside of the rooms. Had some issues with the shower and the towels were clean but stained.

Very friendly staff and clean room. Blinds had a hole so people could see in the room and we were near the office more people about. A ratty looking riding mower sitting outside our room did not look appealing.

Very unsafe.
2-night trip

10/10

We stayed one night. The room was clean and staff was friendly. There were some dogs barking off and on throughout the evening but I think it was from a near by house not from another room at the lodge. The barking stopped before we got to sleep and it was quiet the rest of the night. The beds were a little more firm than I like but were still fairly comfortable. The location was perfect for us as it was only 2 minutes from the activity we had planned the following morning. It was myself and my mother and we felt safe there. Overall, it was a nice place to stay and would consider it again if I ever revisit the area.

Reservations for two rooms had been make weeks in advance. We arrived at about 8:20 and the clerk was surprised. He said notice of our stay was sent only hours before. Still, nothing had been done to prepare our rooms. We were told that they would be ready in thirty minutes, but it took fifty of course. No problem with the stay once we got into our rooms.

To check in, you have to ring a doorbell. If no-one comes, you have three phone numbers to call. It took me about 30 minutes to get someone to check me in. The toilet paper roll was empty. There was no coffee or cups for the coffeemaker (I went to the office, rang the bell, and got the needed items.) Staff was very pleasant, but they are woefully understaffed.

Terrible leak in Shower. The knob on the shower facet would not stay on.

I did not like the cigarette burns, nor stains on the bed sheets. Two wall outlets didn’t work properly. Room was clean though and very quiet.

I did not feel safe at this property. There was a couple yelling and fighting in the room next to me. I also could not get my laptop connect to the internet for homework. I felt so unsafe I didn't even stay the whole night. It looks like the meth capital of the country in this town.

Pulled the sheets off the bed to find spiders crawling. Smelled like a smokers house. Didnt give enough towels or pool towels. Ran out of toilet paper. No ice. We had nowhere else to stay so we went and bought air freshner and bug killer..

We booked a nonsmoking, but someone had been smoking in the room. And the bathroom sink the stopper was missing and cigarette butt drop down it. The two mirrors in the room was filthy. I wouldn’t stay again or recommend it to anyone.
