The only thing I would complain about was there was only 2 pillows on the bed, so my girlfriend and I had 1 each. They were thin and not enough support, 2 pillows each would have been nice.

Such a value find! The room had beautiful view of mountains. The motel albeit being a bit old, was wonderful and clean. The staff were very accommodating. Check-in closes at midnight, but we were unsure if we would arrive by then. I called the place earlier in the evening and informed them about this. They sent us detailed instructions on how to check in ourselves. They also told me to call them anytime if I needed help. Free breakfast was also a nice bonus

The cutest place in the cutest town!

My sister and I had a quick weekend getaway and the Ridgeview Motor Inn was the perfect place for us to stay. We got a little lost on our way there (the turn to stay on Highway 28 is not well marked), but one of the helpful staff woke up in the middle of the night to come check us in! WOULD 100% STAY AGAIN

My room was clean, well lit, with a lovely view of a grove of trees. The Hospitality Room, where the breakfast is available, is open all day, so I was able to toast some of my bread and make sandwiches. The flowers around the outdoor seating area are beautiful. This is a "working person" motel, with space to park rigs/boats, fish cleaning station, and ease of access. The staff person is friendly, helpful, and cheerful.

Based on my expectations, it’s a 5-star. However it would not be fair to a true 5-star to give this a 5-star. The manager was awesome. Thank you! Coffee was hot and fine. Breakfast was definitely lacking! Beds were comfy. Quiet place. I’d stay again.

Friendly and accommodating!

We stayed 2 nights in order to take a boat trip nearby. The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful. The free breakfast was very nice. Unfortunately we arrived during a rare heat wave, so would have preferred a/c to the fan that was provided. It would not have been a problem on the other 363 days of the year. The owner is building a deck and lounging area, and is installing a/c soon. We look forward to returning to the Ridgeview and exploring more of its beautiful surroundings.

This is a dated, run down property. Not fond of the stink of cigarettes and butt cans outside my room, or the stylish back seat out of a car used as a bench. Flophouse comes to mind.

Set in a beautiful location, this aged motel is all the area offers. Was supposed to be newly renovated however our room was not. It was old, dirty and in serious disrepair. Broken blinds, window with a missing bugscreen, stained carpets old broken furniture, the list goes on. We would have left if it wasn’t so far to the next accommodations.
