The room was comfortable, the carpet had large stains which made us feel like we had to have footwear on. But the bed and other accommodations were good! We found another group and got to chat with them instead of staying in room. We’d stay here again

The people were nice. The service was great, and there was an *actual* Continental breakfast (sausage, eggs, coffee, etc) rather than a sad frozen burrito like most motels.

We arrive around 8pm. Parking full. On street parking nearby full further away had limited street parkingand poorly lit. Lots of people sitting in their truck beds smoking, playing loud music and hanging out in the parking lot of the lodge. Did not feel very safe.
