Inexpensive, friendly, safe... The a/c was colder than cold and the hot water in the shower was hotter than hot. The owners are very pleasant. The rooms are clean. For an inexpensive weekend exploring the Peace River this is the place to stay!!!!! We stay here EVERY single time we go to Peace River. It's nothing fancy but we love it & love the owners!!!!!

Living in Treasure Island, I needed some quality 'rest", and stayed two nights. The new owners are working hard to upgrade the units after the hurricanes, and their sincere goals will exceed guest expectations, when they finish. Kudos to this family.

For the bargain price of the room, we did not expect much. However the room we had was spacious, clean, well furnished and comfortable. In other motels across Florida we paid sometimes 3 times as much for a room like this. We travel by bicycle so a good bed as in this motel is important to us.
