Reception was on other side of golf course, so that was frustrating and annoying. Room was spacious, clean light filled. A bit dated, but ok. I wasn’t aware there would be an internal door leading to another guests room this felt quite unsafe, as the latch wasn’t very sturdy.

Seniors reunion with some golf , food and drinks.
Older but well maintained motel and rooms clean. Shower was great but small bar fridge at floor level not so good for seniors. TV was faulty so we watched news only then turned off. Out doors OK but lawn needed mowing. Restaurant menu over the top. We seniors had to google words to find out what the bloody food was. Wine list was so bad I drank Bundy and coke .Stupid for a 3.5 - 4 star? motel on a golf course. The Big River Tavern food was great but 400m away. Long walk home after a few wines/ beers. Shut the restaurant and do a shuttle to the tavern.

The rooms are located on the golf course . You have two options for dining ,one attached to room complex and the main is a short drive away . A nice touch is the complimentary bottle of wine , 2 bottles of water and a chocolate bar .
