Hotels near West Ellsworth

Location was good. Hotel was clean . Rooms were kept clean.

The breakfast was standard free breakfast offerings, better at the Comfort Inn across the street where we will be staying the next time.

Wade is an excellent manager and resource to area points of interest

First off, the rate for the cabin was $100, which was much lower that other accommodations in the area. Because the rate was so reasonable I was able to use my funds for other fun activities, Secondly, the owners were so friendly, helpful and welcoming. I was offered a room in the back of the motel, which was nice since traffic on that road was heavy. I was advised that the room was smaller, yet that was fine. I wanted a small table, which I needed to work on a project and it would not have fit in the room so the owner gladly offered a cabin for the same price. He was not put out or irked by my request. There are 2 cabins to each unit, which I did not mind. It is early in the season so there there no guests in the adjoining cabin. The room was very clean and there were no unwelcome smells. Smaller heater, which warmed up the room quickly. The bathroom was very clean as well. I did not take a shower so I cannot remark on that aspect. The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean. There was a refrigerator and microwave, both very clean. There was a large screen TV, which I didn't use. The cabin was paneled in wood, which I found to be cozy. If you are looking for rugs, painted walls, "upscale", etc. you won't find it here. If you want a simple, comfortable accommodation with responsive, kind owners, to lay your head at night this is the place for you. When I dropped off my key in the morning both owners (wife and husband) were once again very welcoming, thanking me for choosing their motel. I will return this to motel every time I am in the area as long as they are open for the season. I believe they said they close for the season sometime in mid-October.

This 6 bedroom resort is lakefront and very quiet and relaxing. Built in the 60s, it’s recently been purchased by the granddaughter of the original owner. Chauncey and her team took over 2 weeks before our visit and are working hard to make the lodge a destination retreat; it would be great for reunions or small weddings. The dining room wasn’t officially open but Chef Michelle cooked a terrific dinner just for the three of us so we wouldn’t have to drive to the nearest town. We sat lakeside and sipped wine, watching osprey and an eagle. There were lions in the morning. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and can’t say enough about the great service. We’ll be back

The breakfast was amazing and the location was nice. The staff were very nice. This location had the best beds by far.

Incredibly nice staff and beautiful land. The best parts of camping, but the comfort of a hotel.
