Back in oct of 2020 My car had broke down on my way home a few miles away from this place, it was my friend, my two kids and me stuck over 500+ miles from where I live, had no money till the following day but this place was nice enough to let us stay without any money up front and trusted us to pay them later. I appreciate the people who work here. Thank you

This is a very old Lodge House and even has some of the old original furniture still placed in these rooms. Rooms are HUGE !! They even have a very large living room with a vanity, a office desk and lots of space surrounding. There is a small kitchen with stainless steel countertops & sink with a large storage closet next to it for food and drinks. Nicest part is there is a wall in the center of the room separating the bed & the livingroom. Also the toilet and shower are in it's own space separate from the sink so you don't ever have to smell your partner's/roommates stink bombs lol
