It's a great place if all you wish to do is relax and sit by a pool. You need a car here to shop for food and get to restaurants. There is a shuttle that will take you witin 3 miles. No charge. If you want a one-bedroom with a full kitchen there is an additional charge of $195.

Backstreet is the place to go for a nice selection of beers and other brews, mixed drinks, or wine in a small venue. It recalls the corner tavern or local watering hole, with a bit of sports bar thrown in. Today I had their freshly prepared Roast Beef sandwich with Au jus dip. With added melted cheese and fried onion and green pepper and french fries, that made a basket-cleaning meal. The cold brew also was great.

When I first pulled into the motel I was a little skeptical and was planning on heading up the road to a hotel. However, I was surprised with my stay. Clean and the gentleman that works the front desk was personable.
