“I've been staying here every weekend for more than 7 years”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

Over all, from all the motels in the area, this is the best place for me to stay. It is peaceful and the management is diligent. I wake up in the morning and enjoy the view of surrounding hills and the country fresh air. I have often thought of staying there a week or two because of the peaceful atmosphere and to get some of my work done. The other motels in the area are just too expensive or places where I would not feel comfortable staying at. This one is very good. Over all, it is the best one.

“Monthly stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 30, 2012

We've been staying here for the past 1 1/2 yrs while saving for a house. The staff is very friendly and welcomming. Reasonably quiet and clean. Rates are reasonable. The rooms and property are well kept and welcomming. We would reccomend these accomidations.

“not up to chain franchise standards or worth $60 a night”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 28, 2011

I inquired about this place with the power outages. I stayed here in the past, both in the older weekly cottages up front and the newer building (built in approx 1985-90 I was told) in a kitchenette room.

This place is supposed to has have been renovated to meet Red Carpet Inn Standards, but still has to same 1980s old room furnishings and furniture of when I stayed there in 2007. , The older mid century cottages in the front part of the property has better sound insulation between the room walls. than the newer building's paper thin walls. in other words when you stay in the older building you can't hear the people in the room next door to you, but in the newer building, I could hear people fighting and the blaring tv in the room next door in the new building. The beautiful green mountain views are non exsistent.
The kitchnette and bathroom were from the mid 80s as well as the hot tub tiles. The older cottages (buildings)are run as a seperate entity under their old Colonial Park Motel name. Newer back building with Christmas tree lights is the Red Carpet Inn. Outside apperance of property and peple hanging around there scare people away. Not safe.

“Drugland and prostitute haven”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed February 11, 2011 via mobile

Dont stay here. My license plate was stolen here. Paper thin walls. Poorly constructed ancient building with cheap renovations overly glorified. Formerly colonial park motel but raised rates with chain franchise but still same old place. Dumpy old run down weekly cottages in front scare people away. Never changed my bed. Stay away
