Great little place to stay for a weekend fishing trip.
Beautiful picturesque site on the shores of Lake fork. Very nice staff
Good parking shop on site, plenty of shopping / eating options in town nearby. Very good value. The site and view make it so.
It's a fisherman's motel with a private ramp and lake access. The bed wasn't great, but we slept fine. The room was clean and A/C was cold. The store clerk and grounds keeper are both nice guys. They were helpful and polite and did want they could to make us comfortable.
The room was very plain, but clean and beds where comfortable. Office folks were really friendly, would stay again. Did not use the restaurant so nothing to review on that side.
Stayed at loft on top of gas station
Made for unique experience
We got 8 kids
Place had plenty beds and rooms...like a vrbo but quicker and easier.
Staff is nice.
Thanks yall
I read all the reviews for the past year and it was nearly a 50/50 split of people either loving it or hating it. One person complained immensely about the uncomfortable beds, another about the A/C, etc.
We just stayed here over Easter weekend. It was totally fine! I wasn’t expecting the four seasons for $56 a night.
Beds were comfortable, A/C worked well, rooms were clean overall, the staff was friendly.
Only complaint I have is the $200 hold for a deposit on my room that was not mentioned. My card wasn’t charged and the hold was released, just surprised at the amount for such a simple place to stay.
Walking distance to the lake, great parking and convenient. Would stay here again.
Staff was accommodating for late check-in by leaving room unlocked.
Then it went downhill.
Once you pass through the swarm of bugs to enter the suite, the unseen chirping of a hidden smoke detector assaults your nerves. The bedding was probably freshly clean a week ago. Spiderwebs and layers of dust on all ceilings and fans.
My kids would not sleep in the room with the 3 beds due to the amount of bugs on the walls in there.
The wi fi information was wrong and no password available as we arrived after normal business hours.
Will not recommend or return.
The mattresses were awful. The door knob came off in my husband hand when he opened the door. The rooms were clean and the lady in the store was very nice.

We checked in. The room was a bit dirty, had spiders and webs in the ceiling and on the walls. At least we think the sheets were clean and the beds made. We put out spider traps so we could sleep. We also put in a room freshener. Probably musty because it was close to the lake. The clerk at the front desk is challenged with English, but we finally got settled.

Property was relatively well maintained. Beautiful lake with some seating. A large group would need to bring some extra chairs or a few blankets, A great spot to sit & watch the sunset.
I always bring my own cleaning supplies where ever I go, but the room was pretty clean.
Only issue was with the water. It was very hard and had a heavy smell. Get enough bottled water to last through your stay & If you have sensitive skin bring plenty of lotion. That being said, I would definitely go back, the staff & the locals were very friendly.
The attendant was accommodating and kind when we didn't like the first room he showed us. (It looked nothing like the photo). He offered us another, so we took it. It was just ok. Paid $50 for a pet fee (two nights) yet there was animal hair all over the sofa and the round dining table. Cleaning of window sills, dusting, corners was needed. Surrounding area was nice. Location great. It was ok.
Check in was barely simple at the gas station directed me where I had to go to our room went to our room. You can tell they have done some remodeling fresh paint new counters. There was unusual smell wasn’t bad wasn’t good. Can determine it small full size fridge things that we needed in the evenings when we were done with our activities, the beds were very uncomfortable and they were not attached to the headboards so every time you moved the headboards banged against the wall and so didn’t our neighbors on either side it was adequate for what we were doing as a family and fishing trip Would recommend based off a cost
Began slowly. Only one man dealing with RV's, store and hotel check-ins. He was friendly. Room was clean and appeared to have been recently painted. Upon check in I was informed that a $200 deposit was required besides my full payment for the room. I was told it would be refunded at check out. The mattress was very hard and uncomfortable. The turn plate in the microwave was missing. I was told if I left before 8am to leave the key in the room, but since the microwave plate was missing I wanted to make sure I got my $200 deposit back and was not charged for it. I was at the store/office at 8 the following morning to find the doors locked. Another customer showed up and called several phone #s posted on the door. After about 15 minutes the same man from the night before showed up. He was walking down the street. I told him about the plate and requested my deposit back. He assured me it would be removed from my credit card by noon that day. Well it has been 2 days and the charge is still pending on my card. I just called and did not get an answer at the store/office. I left information to return my call. I will not be going back nor will I recommend them.

Our stay at axtons was pleasant. We went for a fishing trip and stayed for 4 days. We stayed in duplex D. Two bed rooms, livingroom/kitchen area. Overall the rooms were very clean. My biggest complaint is that the beds in the rooms are TERRIBLE, not like oh i prefer a softer bed type bad but like i wouldnt even give it away for free sleeping onbthe ground was like sleeping on a cloud compared to theses beds. the beds are extremely old, worn out, 3 inches thick the bottom of the bunk bed was slanted in and ypu couldnt even breath without the entire frame squeaking. Honestly they are that bad. That being said, the kitchen had a coffee maker an apartment size fridge not a little mini fridge, and a hot plate. At the initial booking there were some issues with a pet fee for our service dog, which was handle very well by the owner/manager. Once we arrived to check in the staff memeber requested proof that our dog was a service dog in order to waive the pet fee. Our dog is registered and i showed him this, but explained that legally a service dog does not have to be registered nor does a handler have to provide proof of a service animal and let him know i had already spoken to management about our service dog. All ways good after that. The place is a little run down looking on the outside but inside was updated, alittle. This place has alot of room for growth. Simple updates such as better mattresses, and kitchen cookware would go a long way.

They have tried to update the property but it is just so old and smells old and musty. The walls are so thin we could hear every conversation on both sides of us. The window only has blinds and you could see our TV from the parking lot with the blinds closed. The deadbolt is very hard to lock. The people around us stayed up late outside talking. Their lights from their cars were in our window for hours. They put chairs on the porch and one was in front of our window facing our window when we got up the next morning. Not something you want to walk out and find. Our room was supposedly water front, but the water is too far away to be considered water front. Check in is 3:00, we got there at 5 and they didn’t have our room ready. I wasn’t sure if they even had my reservations the way he acted so confused when we wanted to check in. We booked 2 nights, but only stayed 1. The beds are not comfortable. We bought our own towels at DG because the towels were very thin and old and worn. They were clean and smelt clean but I just couldn’t use them. We used them as curtains instead. The shower was great! Water was hot and good pressure. The property is behind a gas station in a mobile home park.
