We have stayed at this hotel for years. Every April or May we go up for a week of trout fishing. This year we were disappointed. This hotel has seemed to be going downhill for many years. Can't keep an owner. We were told they even shut down a couple weeks before we got there because they didn't meet code.... More

Please read all reviews and decide to NOT stay here. It's been 4 years since our visit and I can't believe this place is still allowed to operate, especially since most of the reviews describe our experience completely. It's a memory we will never forget. We were offered the "romantic" suite with a fireplace. Dirty water, room in disrepair and... More

No matter how desperate you are for a room in Helen don't even think about checking into this motel. I have never seen such filth in my life! The room smelled like a dead body and urine. The carpets, the beds, the countertops, the tub and toilet all were stained and filthy. Hardly any of the light bulbs worked, thank... More

This place was terrible! We waited for a very long time for the overalls salty onion soups. Two of our dinner guests got sick, one decided not to eat what was served (fortunately that saved me!). It was expensive but the new waitress (poor thing) knew that the food was late and of poor quality. She did not want to... More

The first room we got smelled so bad of smoke and mildew my sinus' ached. The bathroom door would not open and the door to the patio was also stuck. One of the pillows on the bed was so flat it appeared missing. The second room they "tried " to put us in smelled worse then the first. The only... More

We waited almost an hour for our food. The server was great and kept apologizing. The food was mediocre and all five of us ended up sick and it was the only meal we had had together all weekend so we know EXACTLY what made us sick that night!!!

We did t stay here, but stopped in for dinner. The service is friendly if a little chaotic, but the food is really delicious. Not many beers to choose from, but what we had was great and fresh.

This place is so rotten we should have turned around and walked out upon our arrival. When we first arrived we walked into the office which STUNK of smoke. We walked into our room and the smell of something was disgusting. The carpet was dank, the bathroom tub was stained with something and the door to the bathroom looked as... More

A motel..in the 'best' sense. Wanted a small, motel experience to stay at over Thanksgiving while visiting family who where camping. I think camping would have been a comparable experience but it is what you pay for. Got a room on the river with a nice swing outside overlooking the water. It was what we needed. Nothing more and nothing... More
