"I had high hopes for this place, especially after seeing it featured on Motel Rescue, but unfortunately, the experience fell short. The room itself was clean, which I appreciated, but there was a noticeable mildew/musty odor that made it uncomfortable to spend much time inside. The riverfront setting is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but the grounds need significant upkeep. There were cobwebs throughout, and many of the outdoor furnishings looked either unsafe or unused for quite some time—I didn’t feel comfortable sitting on them. One of the more confusing aspects of our stay was the lack of a proper check-in process. There was no office, and the only person initially available to help us was a contractor who had just demolished the office building. He eventually flagged down some staff members driving by in a golf cart, and they checked us in that way. This situation could have been much smoother with clear communication ahead of arrival. Our room did include a small deck, which was a nice feature and offered a bit of relief from the indoor smell. However, it also had cobwebs and signs of neglect, which made it hard to fully enjoy. While it technically overlooked the river, the view was quite limited. The highlight of our stay was dinner nearby at Suwannee Belle Landing—I highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area. Overall, with better maintenance and clearer communication, this property could be a much more enjoyable place to stay."
