Our favorite place to stay in South Fork.

This is our favorite place to stay when in town. The rooms are clean, quiet, and comfy - and you can’t beat the price! The automated check-in feature is convenient as well.

This is a simple hotel that charges a low, low price. The room isn’t fancy but it was perfect for my one-night stay on a road trip. The online booking and check-in system worked perfectly. But here’s the best part. I texted the owner today I was having car trouble. Asked if he could recommend a good garage. The next thing I know their maintenance guy was at my door to see if he could help the car. I needed a full garage and this guy steered me away from a place with a bad reputation and sent me to someone who treated me well. This was above and beyond and really made me feel great about my hotel choice.

The property was filthy when we checked in. The heater did not work, one of the chairs was broken, you could not use the microwave and any other appliances at the same time. Two burners on the range would not light. The cabinet door was broken. The sink in the bathroom was more for children it was so low. The first bedroom stunk really bad! The refrigerator handle was broken. The bathtub drain barely worked. There was no staff on site, you had to go through the internet. It was an all around terrible experience!!

Great Value for a Weary Traveller

The lodge is great and a real value. I was SO-oooo tired that I had to pull over for sleep. Was glad I did - it was quiet, clean and convenient. Would stay there again. It is dog friendly and feels totally safe. It is not fancy - so, if you're the kind of person who needs ultra-modern and turn-down service, this is not the place for you.
