Lost River Motel

Lost River

Not sure how it's gotten any great reviews.
The shower will haunt my nightmares.  A dark tiled hole that's covered in mold.   It takes 15 mins for hot water to arrive from the room next door (rm 5) where a couple of maids hang out and monitor you as if you're on a do-not-fly list.   You depend on room 5 for water so if they flush you'll jump from the disgusting shower to avoid burning.  It's not sanitary even before covid.
The people at the restaurant are great.  Super friendly and good food.   That somewhat saves it but I can't see coming back.

Not quite acceptable

Up from Australia visiting my father, we had 3 meals there, the catfish and meatloaf was great, next time was Tuesday burger special, they were fantastic and then Thursday primerib night, they were melt in tour mouth wonderful. 3 visits, 3 different ladys serving us and they all were wonderful. Don't pass The Lost River Grill, stop in and enjoy.

Top food and service

Lost River Motel room was very musty smelling when we got there.  We found hair on pillows when we arrived  (don't know who it belonged to)...yuck!  The first night we didn't need heat but the second night we did and the unit didn't work...only had cold air coming out.
On the bright side, the water for shower is nice and hot. Cable TV is fine.  Otherwise it is a very outdated place with sheets and towels that look like they are 50 years old and the furnishings and carpet the same.  
The restaurant is pretty good though and the people there are very nice.

weekend

The place is small, rooms are knotty pine and smell musty. Rugs were rent very clean and the very small bathroom was just ok. Shower had mold as did the other room our friend rented. Beds are noisy as they have flimsy box springs so every time you move, you wake yourself up! It's ok if you are passing they however wouldn't go out of my way to stay here. 
Staff is very friendly and the rates are ok.

Bright Bedspread Can't Cover Shortcomings

We stopped at the lost river grill for lunch after hiking at the state park. The food was delicious. The turkey burger was the best I’ve ever had. Shrimp wrap gets two thumbs up too. Try the turtle cheesecake for dessert - yummy!

Delicious lunch

Thanks god we did not stay in motel b/s of old and creepy bed and appliances. When we booked it we thought the price is for bed and breakfast but we got there we found out it was for motel. You should be crazy to pay $80 for such a terrible room in such remote motel. The bath was so small which didn’t have bathtub. It was just wasting gas and time and when we rejected staying there they charged us $8 cancellation fee for their confusing options.

Terrifying place

I would never stay here again. The rooms are small the lounge chair was so grungy we had to put a quilt over it. The bath room was very small and the shower was not as clean as possible. The small refrigerator froze everything we put in it and could not be turned down.
