I wanted a room a bit over half way from Point A to Point B on my road trip. Junction was it. So, I booked online, looking for the CHEAPEST PRICE possible. And this place was the cheapest.
This place was the cheapest, so I wasn't expecting it to really look like a resort. It's an outdated rundown getaway that has probably been in ruins for 30 years. HOWEVER, the room was large and CLEAN. The shower water was hot and had pressure. It had travel-sized shampoo, conditioner, and soap, too. The MATTRESS was new and not too soft or too hard. The AIR CONDITIONING worked well. So, because I was looking for something ECONOMICAL, I give this place 5 stars!
Junction/Segovia is just about in the middle of nowhere. And this inn and resort probably was a fun place to stay at one time. (Do tourists use the river for canoes, inner tubes, or rafts?) The pool is closed and full of dark nasty rain water. The pool cabana/venue is boarded up. The tennis courts look sad. HOWEVER, 3 BBQ pits are located near the front office for use. I took photos of the place because I think random places are a hoot! And this place is indeed random. It is probably a good place to hide if you're on the run!
Free breakfast is corn flakes, milk, coffee, sugar, and powdered creamer. This ain't The Ritz but it gets the job done on a road trip and tight budget.
If you have time, drive along the access road through Segovia because it has pretty vegetation and trees, and a really cool old US Post Office from about 100 years ago that is no longer in service.
Telegraph, TX, is NOT far away and it is a bona fide GHOST TOWN. You may want to site see over there, too. read more
