Stayed one night after a 12 hour drive. Lodge type hotel, nice breakfast area. Clean, friendly, good location, and good rate. Front desk was very helpful. Gave us a coupon for area restaurant. Will definitely stay again!!

My husband and I stayed here after a night on the town. It far exceeded my expectations. We booked a whirlpool room, and were surprised with how spacious it was! Microwave, fridge, nice desk area, modern tv. The decor was very cute, and the whole place was incredibly clean. Loved having the ceiling fan over the bed. Everything smelled so... More

I thought I wasn't going to enjoy staying here because I had booked a hotel room with a fire place as it was my boyfriends birthday and I wanted it to be romantic for us, but they didn't have me in their system as a fire place room which I was very disappointed about the women Allie was not pleasant...

I don't know what you can really ask for beyond a friendly staff, a quiet and clean room and a great complimentary breakfast. Check-in and Check-out was quick and efficient. The rooms are very quiet, very clean and with a rustic decor. Breakfast is a full breakfast including eggs, sausage, waffles, cereals and more. If you have to stay in... More

Stayed here on business because almost everything else was booked near downtown. Friendly staff, clean room and pretty quiet in spite of all the younger soccer players. Breakfast was average stuff but a pretty small serving area. There are some nice social areas located around the hotel.

We stayed at the Stoney Creek Inn this past Easter weekend and we were very pleased with everything. The adjoining room set up was excellent and both rooms were very clean & cozy yet spacious. The pool was perfect and the social area on the third floor was a great place to gather outside of our room. The warm breakfast... More

We had a room with bunk beds which was perfect for our group. Would have been nice to have a sink outside of the bathroom to help with everyone getting ready in the morning though. Love the soft pillows on the beds! Breakfast was fine but the room it is set up in is way to small. Great area to... More

We made an overnight trip to allow our 7 year-old's to swim during spring break. The good: Neat rooms with rustic themes, and a log cabin feel. We got one with bunk beds, and it was spacious with a big TV and fridge. The pool/hot tub was fun for the kids. The pool was both in and outside, and that... More

Great visit. Staff was helpful. Nice clean rooms, comfortable bed. Pool was warm, even with part being outside in below freezing temperatures. Excellent hot breakfast was well prepared and kept well stocked. Our room faced the back of the property and it really felt we were in the woods even though we were in the middle of town. Awesome hotel.... More
