A very clean and modern motel with comfortable and unique rooms located in a great area. I highly recommend the many wineries in the area. The staff were available if needed and check in/check out was fast and easy. Staff were also extremely friendly at the motel and the coffee shop, which has the best coffee and light meals.

The hotel door didn’t lock, the room was mediocre based on the nightly rate. The room above ours sounded like they were moving furniture at 1am and again at 7am. Would not stay there again.

Booked this for my daughter and husband to stay one night for a nearby sporting event. it was a great experience from start to finish. Their room was unique and fun, but also very comfortable. Staff had left a lovely note of encouragement for my daughter. It’s a very small town and not a lot going on off-season. So they enjoyed that after dinner they could use the lounge area to play some games and hang out. My husband said all the staff was very accommodating and friendly, and I found the same thing when calling to iron out the details. Restaurant options, nearby were pretty limited but they did find somewhere good to have dinner. A great alternative to staying in Windsor.

Loved this motel! It was super clean and the room was so cute. It was walking distance to the lake and a short drive to wineries. I traveled with my fur baby and they treated her so nice. Overall a great motel and I will definitely be staying again.
