The lakes motel is probably our favorite place that we stayed during our whole trip! Everything is clean, the rooms have been redone... The bed was AMAZING and so was the shower, had we known we would have such a lovely stay, we would have booked a longer stay. The staff is just lovely and welcoming, offering tips and help, we felt great here.. We will definitely return!

Giving motels a great name

This motel gives motels a good name. Very clean, comfortable, with parking adjacent to your motel unit. Warren at the front desk is both friendly and super helpful. He rearranged our following days plans with great ideas, and we were happy with the result. Great place to stay!
