The first thing we said when we stepped into our cabin was, "wow I wish we were staying longer". Everything updated and everything you might need is there. Just a wonderful experience too with our check in process...we were there early and someone was there to greet us and give us instructions. There was even instructions on the envelope in case we didn't remember. Parks are close and lots of restaurants near by. Definitely will be staying here again if we visit.

It is paper thin walls here. I can hear a people whisper. Anyone who turns on the water makes the sink in my room belch and gurgle. Dont expect a decent quiet stay

Disliked: Amenities
Arrived around 7pm and had to pick keys up in a box. Housekeeping didn’t come next day so the garbage sat there. Motel was full and when we arrived back at our room there was no parking left…had to park partially in a tree area. A little pricey for little to no amenities. It was clean and nicely renovated which was nice to see

Was extremely pleasantly surprised with this place. We booked a room with two queens and walked into the room to find the second queen had its own room with a door! The booking also didn’t mention that there would be a fully stocked kitchen, with a toaster oven, microwave, stovetop, and large fridge/freezer. And all of it was immaculately clean.
