Be aware

Be aware that the hotel WILL charge the card you reserve the room with on check in day despite what hotels.com says, they say they follow their own rules. They did refund the card and recharge the card I wanted to use though but it was awkward. Very clean, beds were hard but overall a nice place

As motels go it is good. Clean, everything works (but nothing exceptional like a pool or balcony or free breakfast.)There are 2 restaurants within walking distance. Lots of tv channels, fridge, microwave and coffeemaker.

The property had many beautiful plants and flowers and a fountain and comfortable chairs and a picnic table. The room itself was beautifully decorated with placemats, wall decorations, even a dispensor in the shower filled with shampoo, conditioner and soap. The beds were very comfortable!! It is off a highway so outdoors there was some traffic noise, but none in the rooms. Also plentiful ice was available. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommend this place .

This properly was close to Deep Creek Lake (not on the lake), and convenient to get to. It was clean and functional. While on a rather busy highway, the road noise was not an issue for sleeping. I like that it is a family owned business, and the small touches in the room make it unique. It was also affordable (which is the reason I chose it to begin with). I'd recommend, and would stay here again.
