“Nice place to stay and enjoy the trails. The room was very clean and the owners were awesome. I definitely plan on going back. After riding a long day on the trails it was nice to take a hot shower and have a cozy place to rest. Lots of room to park my truck and trailer. Than ride right from the motel to the trails.”

“We (all 9 of us) just finished up a 3 night stay to ride our ATV's. The owners were fantastic! The rooms were clean but basic which was fine for us as we just needed a place to sleep. Plenty of room for our trailers The fire pit was a real nice addition. The location in regards to the trails were top notch! Probably will be back if we go back to St Helen.”

“A bit aged and kind of rustic, but cozy and clean. Unfortunately, I wasn't there on vacation or to go riding the trails, but that didn't diminish the quality of my stay. Sometimes you just need a relaxing getaway, even if you're forced to by circumstances beyond your control. I just wish I could have stayed on a day the owner has his BBQ open. Note: The negative Nancy's and complaining Karen's leaving reviews should learn to appreciate the little things a little more, or go find a ritzy hotel somewhere. Just saying.”
