Motel is in a good location and felt very welcoming. Room was very clean and overall, was well worth the stay. :) After hours of twisting, winding roads, a humorous call to their owner/housekeeper landed us in room 5 with our too much to handle mixed breed boxer. A bright talk on the sightings of Bigfoot and the three cats who run the place was in order:) the kindest transaction for a good night's sleep and great energy

Lodged here several times for work assignments. On my trips, Cheryl, Mgr. and her team have been amazing. She is incredibly friendly and goes above and beyond to make my experience great! She and her team always rectified any issues quickly or in a timely manner. Plus she did it with a smile, enhancing my stay. Since she knows the area, she could tell me which business to go to if I needed anything. I also must say she is very knowledgeable about the eateries, so I could depend on her for recommendations.

1st time visiting the Willow Creek areas. Sheryl was a great and friendly host. Great place to stay if your into the Bigfoot thing or in the area. The view from the room was great. There was a big bed in the room, microwave & little fridge. Cable was also included & we watched the basketball playoff games. Would definitely come back and stay here!

My girlfriend and I loved staying here. We stayed here for a couple nights late last month. Danielle at the front desk checked us in and was the sweetest person ever. She was so accommodating. We hope to see her again upon our next stay.

Best little hole in the wall motel that I've stayed at in a long time! My room was super clean. The on site manager was amazing. One of my favorite things about this place was the fenced in yard that I could let my dogs off the lease to handle their business. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

Wonderful little place in a wonderful little small town!! I went here with a bunch of friends and completely messed up the booking and payment. Despite the person at the office being gone for an emergency and the poor connection at the ring cam, they got me into our rooms and when the owner arrived i was able to get payment sorted really quick. They were very chill about the checkout time which was cool! The place had a bunch of really nice and interesting people to talk to there at night and people gave some really good advice on places to check out in the area!! I’d say the price for this place is really fair for what you get, and the people running it are awesome and really chill 1000% will stay there again if given the chance!!

Was skeptical based on previous reviews, but met the new manager ( was only 3 weeks on the job) who is doing a great job bringing the rooms to good condition. Was pleasantly surprised. My room was very clean, bed was comfortable and pillows were pretty good. I stayed for 4 nights and the manager was very responsive and helpful. There are only a few places to eat in willow creek and what she recommended was excellent. Would definitely stay again A solid 3.5 star
