The owners did such a great job renovating this motel! I really appreciated all the small touches - there were plenty of outlets available for charging devices, they provided ear plugs if you were bothered by the road noise (I was not - I did not find it that loud at all), and I loved that they had large bottles of soaps in the bathroom to be more eco-friendly. For a one night stay, I have nothing to complain about and would recommend this place to anyone!

Mountain Modern Comfort!!
This was an overnight stay on our way to Canada. Even though it was a small motel it was so nicely decorated and in a beautiful setting. I loved our stay here!

Really clean and well renovated property! Great amenities and again, SUPER clean!! The location is not near restaurants, but is near a gas station for basics. The train and highway nearby was the only negative. But I would definitely stay here again!!

Great place to stay after a long day of driving. Well equipped and comfortable. The street noise tapers off and wasn't an issue. Wish there were more windows and a view of something other than our car.

We’re not smokers. I understand it was raining when we arrived, but to have 3 people standing around the door to our room smoking was not the welcome we were looking for. Your rule sheet says 20 feet from the front of the motel, not 2 feet. We waited in our car until the smokers were done and left.

My family and i had a great 1 night stay at this motel. Self check in/out with electric locks on the doors. The room was clean. Parking right in front of our room. Sound proof was more than adequate but the staff provided ear plugs just in case as it sits on a busy road. The room had everything we needed- toiletries, fridge, microwave, chairs out front. Customer service was excellent, owners were very friendly and communicative. They accommodated a last minute late checkout. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

this is a motel that has been remodeled. It is cute inside with minimum amenities. It's nothing special, but it was good for the one night we stayed.
