This is a gem of a property, unique, fun. Great location just off the I-80 exit and tucked behind a convenience store. Comfortable rooms nicely decorated with a "Pacific Northwest"-type feel. Fantastic, helpful staff and a cute bar on site.

The feel of the place is inviting. I’m guessing the place was pretty popular/nice a few years back. Definitely in need of some modernization and cleaning. Overall, the stay was good. Kids enjoyed the indoor/outdoor pool. Again, I feel the place needs a thorough cleaning.
