It is not often angels come around. But the little lady who owns this quaint little motel was one for us. Sweet and funny. An absolute wonderful woman!! Decently priced. (Pay with cash, it’ll help her out more) It’s a small little stop. Right off the exit and a small walk will take you to the cafe (also has really good sweet potato fries) and the local gas station! Warm rooms, comfy beds and fluffy blankets!! Thank you so very much!! Aly/Adam!

Exquisite location to ski Anthony lakes. Warm well maintained rooms on the inside even if outside is a bit rough and excellent value.

A friend and I started a trip to Colorado and got stuck in the worst blizzard I've seen in eastern Oregon. It was the most white knuckle drive I've ever been on. We arrived in North Powder at about 1am and we were able to get a room right then and there. The owners were amazingly friendly and gave us some homemade cookies. The beds were a bit hard but otherwise very clean and a great place to stay if you're stuck in the middle of a white out blizzard. The rooms were also cheap which is a plus!

My experience here was fantastic! The rooms are reasonably priced, they're clean and comfy, and the owner is very kind. I highly recommend and will be stopping by here again on my way to Portland from SLC.

The 70 plus year old lady Taking care of rooms and cleaning was the owner. Her being the management I found to be very polite and kind. The room was clean with good hot water AC that worked well with the outside temp at 110. TV with lots of channels and a comfortable bed.The room was a little tight but worked OK for the 2 nights we stayed. When possible I prefer to support small business. Next time we head that way we will definitely book a room and stay again.
