It is located in the centre of town and most amenities are within walking distance. If you are running in the CDR, there are many racers there to learn from their experiences. I can't say enough good things about the Acorn Motel.

While it is obviously an older building, they have done a nice job renovating the hotel. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and have been updated well. The continental breakfast is nothing special, just basic breakfast items, but the rooms have little kitchenettes, so you can bring in your own food. Well worth the price.

You will be greeted by "Belle" the greeter cat. She doesn't have a tail so I would have named her Bob...but what the heck. They will do your laundry for a small fee, folded and brought to your door.

We visited the Black Cat for our good friends' wedding. The location was stunning, and that's where…read moreit's getting its stars. If not for a particular experience we had, it might have gotten all five. We didn't stay in the rooms or cabins (camped out), so I can't speak to the accommodations. But they did let a bunch of generally tame 20- and 30-somethings run amok for an evening. It was pretty awesome. We ate two meals there. My specific complaint is that we were required to sign up for the Sunday brunch in advance of the wedding--which would have been fine, but there was some disagreement between the wishes of the bride (who wanted to hold the brunch at 9 a.m. to accommodate late risers and hangovers) and the ranch operators (who insisted that brunch would begin at 8 a.m.--as if that weren't just breakfast). This wasn't necessarily a problem, but they assessed guests an additional $8 for "brunch" because it was an hour later than they wanted to serve it. So we ended up paying $20 each for what was a pretty lacklustre breakfast, and the kicker was that we didn't even know until we were settling up at the service desk. I might consider going back as the lease on the ranch is for sale (it's on Crown Land). Maybe some buyers who aren't interested in fleecing captive guests will jump on board ...
