Nice little motel by Chippewa National Forest with a good restaurant and grocery store next door. Staff were friendly and check-in process was easy. Rooms have classic decor with movie posters and signs from the 1960s. Room had a smart tv, coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave, and recliner.

This place had a very rustic and "north woods" feel. Everything in the room was clean and well maintained, but most things were older. (I felt this was a plus- It felt very nostalgic rather than generic). Will stay again!

The rooms are very clean with new carpet and comfortable bed. It was quiet given the location near a highway. There is always some at the property that actually cares if you have a request, need or issue. I will absolutely stay at this locally managed property again.
