Alpine Garden Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay here was absolutely amazing!! The owners were really nice and accommodating. We stayed for about four days, and the owner kindly offered us additional coffee and tea. They were also very accommodating when we ran out of paper towels and even offered room service while we were out. The kitchen was well equipped with utensils, plates, pots, and everything we needed during our stay. The towel given at the motel were also very convenient when going to the spring. The location was great, as it was nearby and offered a wonderful view outside. Overall, our experience was wonderful, and we would definitely come back again with our family. Highly recommended!"
