"It is located just off a main highway with a Cracker Barrel and a Waffle House on the same side and a Golden Corral just across the highway. This location is an older facility. The owners are doing very well to make the accommodations pleasant. It's primary usage would be for a night or two stay while traveling a long distance as there are no types of any recreation or entertainment available. The price is right and there is a small fee for your pet."
