This "roadside" motel is a gem. Still has that classic 60's look, yet with modern updates including a energy-efficient heat pump AC/heating unit. Lounging by the pool I expected Frank Sinatra to come strolling by any time. Pleasant staff. Bypass those "big box" motels and have a relaxing stay at the Country Inn - you won't regret it.

Cozy spot

Very cozy and clean room with a full kitchen available. Staff was very nice. Had a little difficulty at first with figuring out the tv and air conditioning- but got it eventually. Could be a bit on the noisy side. Otherwise a great little spot!
