I liked the easy check in process! Though wasn’t a real check in, the host just texted me the code to get in the room. The door wasn’t secure when we arrived so that was a little strange. Room was decorated nicely. Clean.

I just had the most fantastic stay at The Lazy Duck! From the moment I checked in, it as clear this place understands what travelers truly appreciate. They've absolutely mastered the art of paying attention to the small things that make a huge difference. First off, let's talk about the grills outside for guest use. This was an absolute game-changer! After a long day in the park, being able to cook our own dinner outdoors was such a treat. The grills were clean, well-maintained, and perfectly situated for a relaxed evening, with ample areas to eat outdoors also. It added a whole new level of convenience and enjoyment to our trip. And speaking of convenience, I have to give a special shout-out to their ice machine. Now, I know it sounds minor, but how many times have you encountered a slow, sputtering, or just plain sad ice machine at a hotel? Not here! Their ice machine was fast, efficient, and never ran out. It's a small detail, but it speaks volumes about their commitment to guest comfort. Beyond these standout features, every aspect of our room felt thoughtfully considered. The linens were crisp, the amenities were top-notch, and everything was immaculately clean. It's rare to find a motel that gets every little detail right, but The Lazy Duck has truly achieved it. I can't recommend this place highly enough and will definitely be back!

Tara looks sketchy but it’s not, just the looks. Bed is super comfy. You won’t ever meet any staff as I never saw one person. Don’t expect any morning service, but the bed is insanely comfortable. You are safe on that area

I love the check in process which was great when people are arriving at different times. The place is clean and super cute. We will definately stay here again. The doors could use some WD40 and the heater in my room needs some maintaince but other than that it was perfect.

quiet place to stay, bed is a little small for two people. Breakfast isn’t on site, you have to drive to a different place to eat and they only provide a voucher of $10.95 per person, you still need to pay what’s over and tips.

I had low expectations for this motel but it is actually very nice and comfortable. Note: they say that breakfast is included, it’s not. They give a voucher for a local restaurant that will cover about 1/2 your bill. The room has a very good coffee set up and smal kitchen. We bought food and ate in.
