Editorial
Hotel overview
Positioned along the St. Lucie River, this modest motel offers a tranquil waterfront retreat just a mile from the lively historic Downtown Stuart. Travelers will find relaxed rooms, several equipped with kitchenettes, catering well to longer stays or casual dining preferences. Free Wi-Fi and on-site parking add convenience, while the property's marina provides easy access for boating enthusiasts. The atmosphere is simple and unpretentious, reflecting its budget-friendly nature.
Guests can enjoy meals at the hotel's dining area or explore the nearby downtown filled with shops, bars, and restaurants. The marina setting allows for peaceful sunset views, although the property's older facilities show some wear. While the internet connection may be uneven, the location’s proximity to cultural sights like the Elliott Museum and natural escapes such as Indian Riverside Park enhances its appeal. Pet-friendly and family-friendly policies add to its accessibility, though amenities like a pool or fitness center are not available.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Compared to other ridiculously priced hotels in the area (and maybe a 60+ mile radius), this place is worth it. Our room was clean and it has a home-like feel to it. I appreciate the owner working with us since we have a family, and REALLY needed a place to stay- that wasn’t $300/night! We drove from Okeeheelee to stay here (1 hr away). Thank you Jerry!”
“We stayed here 3 nights. The view and the sunsets on the screen porch are fabulous. The room was comfortable but a little rough around the edges because it's an older place place. The Wi-Fi was not good very spotty. If you're squeamish or scared of the lizards this is not the place for you.There are quite a few of them here but they don't come near you or by you at all. There were no lizards indoors they were all outside.It was good and quiet and worth around a $100 a night. There is no restaurant or bar on the premises that is open. That is probably why it was quiet.”
