Thoughtful touches throughout

Recently refurbished--just lovely and every detail so thoughtful from toiletries to snacks and books in the room. Comfy bedding and towels too! Perfect little spot for visiting to town or college and the owner and his family are gracious hosts.

Excellent little motel. You can really tell the owners have worked hard to make the rooms clean and beautiful. There are so many little thoughtful details. You can tell they love their little motel and are putting in the extra effort to make it a special place.
