Can’t wait to return for another stay! ##### Bridget Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Briana Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Charming little motel. Clean rooms, comfy bed and stocked with soap and shampoo etc. We felt safe, dead bolts, code locks and well lit at night. View was amazing. If I ever need to return to Iowa I would not hesitate to stay here again. Staff was helpful and friendly. Felt like a cabin not a motel (we were in the King and Queen Suite) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6f274311-5735-4851-b46f-e86523e21777-1756695717829.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Briana Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosanne Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property was beautiful, well maintained, quiet.

The view is spectacular along with the sitting area to enjoy this hidden treasure. We did run into a problem getting into our room. after calling the number on the office door several times we finally received a call with our code and room number. We waited around for an hour and were on our way out to find another place to stay when Susie called us back. We truly enjoyed our stay and will be back. ##### Lloyd Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Wonderful staff.

Get to the hotel, check in with the friendly, knowledgeable staff, then take your snacks and beverages to the overlook. You'll be there for a while. A long while. Cute, clean, quiet, AMAZING view that you'd never expect in Iowa. Well worth the visit. ##### Christopher Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great views and the room was clean and comfortable! ##### Greg Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Salamanca-Hotels-Seneca-Allegany-Resort-Casino.h2238839.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Pocono Mountains, PA](https://www.expedia.ca/Scotrun-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Pocono-Mountains.h1371449.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky OH](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandusky-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Sandusky-OH.h1183594.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake ](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [Isle Casino Hotel - Waterloo - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Waterloo-Hotels-Isle-Casino-Hotel-Waterloo.h1829121.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information)
