Upon checking in, around 6pm, we found a “closed, be back at x:xx” sign. There was also a list of numbers to call. My husband called the first one with no luck, but quickly tried the second one. The person answered and told us the key was in the room, and the room was unlocked. The motel is a bit dated, but fine. Towels were dingy and a few had spots. Not a big deal. We can manage. We noticed after our dog fell into a hole, that the perimeter of the deck had holes in the earth, and in the spot right in front of our room, the patio block was fighting for its life in one corner, with at least a foot of dirt missing from underneath it. We had to remind the kids several times to watch their step or go around it, which was kind of hard as it was like this in several spots. That night when we laid down to go to bed, the fireplace kicked on by itself. There’s a device on the wall that looks like it controls the heat/fireplace, but the knob is broken off. The fireplace ran all night, so eventually we had to turn the air on to combat how warm it was. Friday it rained all afternoon and was cool and cloudy. The resort advertises a game room. My husband went to check it out, but again the office was closed. Saturday there was a beeping around the motel somewhere and we assumed it was a smoke detector. My husband went to the office to let someone know, but again, it was closed. That was when we noticed our room didn’t have a smoke detector.

I think the property was sufficient for what we needed for one night. Walls were really thin, could hear the whole conversation at 4:00 AM in the next room. Patio door was really had to open. All was clean though. Check in was a quick phone call.

We arrived and to our surprise we were upgraded to a cabin instead of a hotel room. Nice by the lake. Cabin was clean and had dishes and cookware to use.

There was no one there to check in with. No staff. Apparently they only work until a certain time of day and if you don't check in by then you dont get a room.
