Our favorite place to stay in South Fork.

This is our favorite place to stay when in town. The rooms are clean, quiet, and comfy - and you can’t beat the price! The automated check-in feature is convenient as well.

Place was great for the price! They had a huge TV, which was fun because we had just been tent camping. Nice amenities, including coffee in the room. Bed was comfortable, and enormous if you like that. It seemed large even for a king. Maybe it was because of that little tent the night before!

This place is an older motel that has been redone on the inside. From the pictures on Expedia, I expected it would be a small, newer cabin-type room (also given that it's connected to an RV park). But once we got inside, it was very clean, cozy, and comfortable. It's right on highway 160, which can be loud. But with the room ventilation fan provided the white noise we needed to keep road noise out. There is no front desk, just direct access to the room. For the price, I think it's a good value and I would stay there again.

Good on a budget

Room was spacious and clean. Bed was comfy. The room did get a little warm as I couldn't seem to locate an A/C. Check in was easy. The town does not have many food options.
