Such a cute place to stay!!! very dated but not in a bad way really. We never met The receptionist, there was a note posted on the door with our directions and our information telling us to go inside and it would be open… and it was. This is an adorable little getaway. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to break away from mainstream motels.. The room was clean. The property was immaculate…. Remind you of the early 1950’s, but well maintained… they even had a little table and two chairs outside of each room for you to sit and enjoy… We could not figure out the pool and how to get into it because it was padlocked, so that was a disappointment, and there was no one on staff to answer any questions… no breakfast was available, but we did go down the road and had a great breakfast. Quaint would be the best word that I would describe, but it was well worth the money. The beds were clean. The room was clean and it was a sweet little getaway.!

I feel bad giving a lower rating but we picked this out because of the glowing reviews we had read. It was ok. Friendly staff yes! But the place itself was pretty worn out with stained sheets, musty smell, and a puddle under the sink. The bathroom was tiny which I know is because it’s pretty old. But I definitely think this was way over rated in the reviews. No way would I “drive out of my way to stay here”. It was an acceptable place to stay for an overnight stop.

We were passing through on a road trip, and we only stayed one night, but I wish I had longer to stay in the area. We enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. Our arrival was a little later than we thought we would be due to bad weather. They left the key in the room for us, which was very nice and convenient for checking in after 9pm. The room was clean and tidy, beds were very comfortable and the place has great character. Had a nice quiet morning sitting on the porch chairs outside the room which was a very nice way to start the morning before heading out on the road again.

I selected this hotel because the website said it was a 15 minute walk to the lake. When I arrived and asked the front desk staff about the path to the lake, she said there was no walking path and that the roads did not have sidewalks and were curvy. She said it was not safe to walk on the roads to the lake. When I called hotel.com’s customer service, they said it was “walk at your own risk.” The blinds on the windows were very cheap and let a lot of outside light in. There were bright lights outside near both windows, so the room was never really dark for sleeping. The bathroom shower did not have a light in it. The shower curtain was dark, so it didn’t let the light from the bathroom into the shower area. Would not stay here again.

Super clean and a great price! It would be nice if the windows had curtains to cover the blinds because it was a little bright in the room.

Cute Perfect Little Cabin for our stay.

The room was perfect for what we needed. We were in town for Murray State Family weekend, and there were no hotels available in Murray. This was only a 20 minute drive away. It’s close to Kentucky Lake. We drove through the Bison and Elk Prairie. The motel is older but it’s been renovated and is very clean. We loved having the kitchen to be able to eat a couple meals there and save some money from eating out. We didn’t get to use the pool because it was too cool, but it was beautiful and clean.
