I always prefer to put my money into the local economy and support mom & pop businesses instead of the big names-especially when I travel. Family that lives in the area sent us here to this motel to spend the night. We were planning on camping but the weather didn't work out-35 degree lows are not good for tent camping.
Too bad it wasn't warmer, the motel has a cute little pool out front.
Our room had 2 full size beds, a mini fridge, microwave, cable tv, and was clean and spacious. The bathroom was extra clean and had plenty of fresh towels.
The couple that owns 7 Gables was very friendly and had suggestions and helpful information anytime we asked anything.
There is a Mexican restaurant next door & a pizza place across the street, but the main office also has a rack of menus and coupons for local restaurants & attractions. There is also a 24 hour convenience/grocery just half a block down the road from the motel.
The motel has fresh coffee and donuts in the main office in the mornings-it was especially nice that they also had granola bars for a light breakfast on the run when we had to head home after visiting the area for a few days.
Overall the motel was a bit dated, but with friendly service, great rates, and clean rooms, it was worth the stay. read more
