"My wife and I stayed here while attending the Common Ground Fair. As far as we could tell, Neal alone orchestrated and performed all duties. He was very friendly and helpful. Our room was nice & clean and well kept. Comfortable bed! It’s a motel, so don’t expect frills. Nice grounds in back, with a seasonal pool. Trails into the woods. Quiet. Great stay. Will stay again. Thanks Neal!"
