friendly manager

noisy parking lot

A gem with personal touches

The moment we arrived, the manager welcomed us warmly and even checked in with us throughout our stay, making us feel right at home.

The motel rooms are quite close to the parking lot, resulting in some noise during the day, which can be bothersome.

convenient location

friendly staff

great beach access but minor room issues

The location near Sunny Cove Beach is fantastic. The staff was incredibly accommodating, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. Our family room was clean and well-equipped, especially the kitchenette, which was perfect for our needs. The kids loved having their own space in the two separate queen beds. We definitely appreciated how close we were to the beach.

comfy queen beds

hidden beach

We had a sweet stay with two comfy queen beds, a kitchenette, and awesome access to a hidden beach nearby. Just steps away from stores and dining options made life easy.

retro atmosphere

refreshing pool

noise disturbance

We had a lovely stay for two nights and really enjoyed the retro vibe of our Double Room. The outdoor pool was refreshing and the BBQ facilities were perfect for our family dinners. The only downside was a bit of noise from the nearby road, but it didn’t take away from our fun. 😊

separate bedroom, complete kitchen, nearby Dollar Tree store

I found the lack of a hair dryer inconvenient!!! Additionally, the room temperature could have been adjusted better for comfort!!! A touch of extra soundproofing would also elevate the experience!!!

Great Family Getaway

We enjoyed three nights in a spacious family room, perfect for our kids. The outdoor area provided a safe playground, and the close beach access made our stay even better. Plan to dine at the nearby casual eatery for a delicious local experience!
