Close to Heavenly and access to Lake. Otherwise pretty outdated property but room was pretty spacious and some updating was recently done. Always hot shower and good water pressure, but I didn’t take my flip-flops off ever. Not the facility of luxury, but area was safe, quiet after 11pm and front desk guy was attentive and friendly. Not bad if you’re not looking to spend $200 on a room. Also good parking. Accommodates quite a bit of vehicles well.

$200 a night I was expecting A nicer facility. First night, we rented the room with the Jacuzzi in it and found out that the room next to us was occupied by the owners family. They were loud obnoxious and would always put a chair outside of our door So we had to walk around them to get to our room. It felt like we were inconveniencing them. We switched to a different room The second night, but it wasn’t much better. The walls are paper thin so you can literally hear everything Your neighbor is doing. The place looks like it hasn’t been remodeled since the 70s. Very disappointed and will not be returning.
On arrival there was hair in the shower, the sink , on the pillow and side table. Toilet had been cleaned, but not perfectly. Staff were not rude, but just disinterested. One positive - the bathroom had a very good shower.
This motel is old and needs major upgrade the owners definitely don't care anymore no napkin shower head was broken csrpet was dirty towels were like sand paper overall a old outdated motel shouldn't be more than $60 a night.

It was perfect walking distance from the Harvey’s Outdoor Theatre and it was a perfect place to rest your head. It worked.
Room was dirty. Used soap in bathroom. No outlets for medical equipment. Staff refused to refund money even though we wanted to cancel room 5 minutes after checking in

Staff is great here. I will definitely be going back. Hoping for a different room though. Bed and pillows were horrible. Room was very hot even with air conditioning on.
