After putting those two on, the smell dissipated by the next time I entered. As for the room itself, it was fine. Plenty of outlets, very normal accommodations. The TV was a bit small and the fridge was actually kinda big. I liked that there was even a couch /seating area. We had been told that the breakfast was going to be amazing so I was really looking forward to it. I was surprised to find it had most of the same breakfast foods you get these days at hotels. And of the 5 things I tried, 2 were terrible. Maybe skip the eggs and biscuits. The people were plenty nice though!

The new owners are inviting, friendly and fun and I couldn't be more pleased with our stay here. This hotel is for the one who wants to experience something that goes beyond the norm.. the laid back atmosphere despite being completely unconventional makes you feel like you are at home away from home. Pam and Jeromy go to great extents to make certain you are happy and comfortable during your stay. I couldn't get enough of this hotel! Every where we walked there was something new to see! I must have walked through 5 times and each time I saw something new and different! Additionally there is a story to almost every piece that the couple has collected and strategically placed in the hotel! Our stay put us here on New Years Eve in which we were delighted to learn there was a small NYE party in the Ballroom and it was a BLAST! Jeromy is a man of many gifts and talents and personally DJ'd the entire event! The music was fantastic and appealed to the the variety of people that were staying at the hotel this weekend! This couple has an amazing energy that makes everything they do FUN!! SO moving along to our accommodations- We stayed in two rooms as we wanted to experience more then one of the uniquely themed rooms, both were fabulous! The TV in the rooms include a smart TV so there are plenty of viewing options, the linens were crisp and clean, and the hot water was hot! The beds were very comfortable and despite the claims of ghosts and spirits that linger about this known haunted hotel we slept wonderful!!! The first night we stayed in the circus room there were clowns and vintage memorabilia it was bright and fun and maybe a bit creepy but we enjoyed it! The second night we stayed downstairs in a more traditional room it had a Victorian feel and was warm and cozy! Pam greeted us with a smile and made sure we enjoyed our stay when we checked out. I also want to mention that the hotel is conveniently located directly across from a wonderful little coffee shop and a scenic nature trail, so upon waking we partook in lattes and a quaint little walk. The town of Jefferson is a historical town with colonial and Victorian homes a general store and several neat little antique and other shops to visit so much to do and see during the day on your visit. I highly recommend you visit this hotel if you are looking for a fun, interesting and unique experience! It will make for a fun little weekend adventure! Although we didn't participate in the ghost tour or the "disappointments room" we heard much chatter of it and may have to see what it's all about on our next visit! Hoping that to be MARDI GRAS! I will mention that they book up fast so if your interested in visiting near a holiday or special event reserve your room early! Thank you Pam and Jeromy for giving us memorable experience going into 2021!

Back again and still pleased with the consistency of this place. Room 433 has a tub , it's considered an accessible room and truth be told, I enjoyed the wider space. This one is a 2 Queen bed room. We booked too late and that's all they had available, but both hubs and I slept in the middle of the beds lol, so win win. Parking is ample even for a sold out hotel, still loving the bright anti vampire lights that surround the building at night. Location wise, walking distance to a lot of restaurants, Dollar tree, Target etc so it works. I'm a slow walker and it literally took me seven minutes to get there. So any normal being can zoom on by in about 5 minutes.

Out of the 604 nights we've spent away from home in that time in places ranging from sketchy to highly luxurious, the three we enjoyed in Scenic View's motel were among the very, very best. Ellison Creek Reservoir aka Lone Star Lake turned out to be one of our favorites in the state. It is beautiful and uncrowded, with clear water and abundant vegetation to support bass fishing. The people in the town of Lone Star were very nice. The Scenic View facility is very clean, safe, pleasant, and operated with a most impressive devotion to quality and friendliness. The owners and operators since 1998, Jim and Kim, are super cool, dedicated to guest enjoyment, and clearly have reinvested abundantly in the property. They are starkly authentic and decent souls. Bass fishing was good even during a cold front. Tap water was tasty, no need to tote bottled. Beds were comfy. Hot water did not run out. The boat ramp was good and well-lit. Dockage with power or park boat trailer in front of cabin/motel door and charge up. Multiple grill-BBQ-smoker options. The kitchenette worked great, was very helpful, and there is good restaurant food within walking distance. Two bed double occupancy in the motel was $80.48 per night TOTAL final cost with no cleaning fee, etc. Coin-op laundry facilities are at motel rear, workshop side. That area has an almost supernatural ability to pull one fantastic sunset after another from the heavens, and the comfortable sheltered lower outdoor level of the store is a great place from which to watch them. So is the open deck atop the store. And sunset happens but once a day, but all day lasts....wait for it....all day! Watching a storm roll in at dawn from there was a treat. Relaxing and gazing out at a forested lake is simply fulfilling. The lake is very scenic with pine and hardwood forest and is much smaller than the chaos-riddled metro reservoirs many of their guests are used to. We were often the only boat on the lake. Lakeside properties are fun to look at and were well-kept. The residents were friendly, unlike what I've experienced at some places, and their docks and boathouses held fish. Lots of wildlife - bald eagles, river otter family of 5, raccoon family of 5, dozens and dozens of bird species, white pelicans, herons, cranes, and so on. Children must be supervised at all times and pets are not allowed in the motel or cabin. Yes, that's not ideal for some, but for everyone else, well, it's.....uh.....AWESOME, casting (see what I did there?) away a big chunk of things that can make leisure days go sideways. It's pleasingly close to the DFW metroplex and the drive through the middle instead of using I-30 or I-20 is very pleasant Texas backroad fun. Bortle stage 3 dark skies are just 15 minutes away to the ENE with ample gravel county roads with turnouts for stargazers. Lake O' the Pines is just a few minutes SE. Daingerfield SP. Jefferson. The most excellent Welsh Reservoir power plant cold water fishery. As part of a loop tour of the bevy of great lakes in E TX, SV is a great base camp. Amusingly, we arrived intending to spend a day or two of the four fishing Pines, a longtime favorite of ours, but were so happy with Scenic View facility and Lone Star Lake that we never left. Why go out for steak when there's already a tomahawk ribeye in your lap? The best part of this great experience was making friends with several of the soundly and roundly pleasant, considerate, and interesting staff, guests, and neighborhood residents, who often get together for events such as Thirsty Thursday and have a just plain good ol' time. I expect some of those associations will last for a long time. Hopefully, days other than Thursday get thirsty, too, for we plan to return regularly. A+ drenched in 5 star sauce.
