Updated review to 1 star. Shared my feedback with the front desk staff and they could care less if their guests are comfortable or not. Cheap owners. Do not stay here! My wife and I booked caboose #2. Charming, neat, good location. However, the bed was very uncomfortable. We both woke up stiff and did not sleep well. Also, pool was closed. No mention of that online. Bottom line: invest in some new beds! If the beds aren’t comfortable, there is no point in booking the hotel.

I have stayed here in my RV multiple times over the last two years, and I have always enjoyed my stay. All of the sites are large giving space between the rigs, which is nice, most parks cram too many rigs in making it feel like the suburbs. The staff are friendly and the park is clean. Plenty of room to walk the dogs.

We did not stay in one of their rooms, we stayed in their RV Park. The park seems to be very run down. Where we were parked, our view was other RVs that were parked for storage. This could have been because our RV is 43' and needs a bigger spot. If we were to return, I would request a different spot. The particular spot we had, had a small water leak, so there was a continuous mud puddle and river of water. They advertised an indoor pool. Yes, there was an indoor pool, but was closed for the season. I thought the whole idea of an indoor pool was that it could be used year around. That was a disappointment for my grandson. The grounds were not maintained. The trash cans were overflowing and animals had gotten into them and made a mess! I never saw anyone clean it up. There was trash everywhere. I also never saw any kind of employee anywhere around the grounds for maintenance or security. I did see a van once delivering towels to some of the rooms. My son used their laundry room. The washing machine was dirty and had a very musty, moldy smell to it. Yuck. The park served it's purpose and was the cheaper of the nearby options. Now we know why. If you are looking for a place just to stop for the night, this place would suffice.

Such a unique and cute spot. I stayed in the train car for two days and it was perfect for me as a solo traveler. Very close to lots of things to see and do (especially hiking for me). Very close to downtown Williams, as well, so that was nice and convenient. The woman at the front office was great and, overall, just a wonderful experience! Will definitely be staying here again next time I’m driving through!

I had an amazing experience here. The office receptionist was incredibly accommodating and helped us get settled warmly into our room. Our teen daughters, 14 and 17 can be incredibly picky, but they loved the bunk beds and rustic feeling. I loved listening to them laugh, while my husband and I enjoyed the front part of the caboose and original signs. For some crazy reason, and after researching online, I did not think the caboose/railcar had a shower/tub. They do, but I had packed towels thinking we’d get to experience the bath house as a bonus, ha. For the price, you absolutely can not beat this place! I loved great experiences and this park offered just that. Nice, calm, relaxing time and a location that I’d love to visit again in the future.

This place ruined my husband and Is anniversary.. coming from 3 hours away to stay in Williams for the first time and this is how we are treated. This place is the worst motel experience my husband and I have ever been too. Right once we got there our room is right next door to another persons the door is an thin as can be, you can hear everything coming from the other room like whistling, them having a party and drinking also Sex you can hear literally EVERYTHING. The bed was also very dirty and the tv didnt work at all, the wifi would just keep loading every 2 min. The noise and the grossness of this motel made us leave at 5am. I then called the office right once they opened at 9 and explained everything to the front office staff, she was an Arabian girl that just kept fighting me, not believing me and actually hanging up on me saying to write as many bad reviews as i want because it wont do anything for them. She hung up on me called me 5 min later and said she just got off the phone with our next door neighbors about being loud and she said that the people told them they were never loud and didnt do anything! Of course they are going to lie to you so they don't have to pay extra fees or get in trouble! Once she stated that I mentioned that they are just going to take there side over us and she just kept fighting me and fighting me. The most unprofessional staff and motel I have ever experienced in my life and trust me I have stayed at LOTS!! I will be telling all my friends and family to never stay at this place and I hope also people reading this review will do the same. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE THEIR ARE WAY PRETTIER HOTELS AND MOTELS AROUND THE SAME AREA FOR THE SAME PRICE!!!

Such a great find! So peaceful with amazing views. We stayed in one of the cabins and were very pleased with the modern amenities mixed with the rustic mountain feel. Will absolutely stay here again!

I've been staying in the RV Park for quite a while as I am working nearby and they've taken great care of me! I've stayed in the motel before and it's also a great deal, very clean and comfy with affordable rates. When my friend's come visit, they've been staying in the cabins and telling me how they can't wait to come back for another visit soon!

For people who need a place to park rv and visit surrounding area, this place is fine. It could use a little upkeep, but its a place with all hookups and serves the purpose well. Spots will hold the largest RVs even if towing. Gravel lots on all. Its not a eye pleasing park but scenery around ot is beautiful. Just needs a little cleanup to be great. Very close to bearizona. A Great place to visit

We originally booked one of the railcar rooms and it was much smaller than we anticipated. We spoke with the staff and they got us moved right away. HIGHLY recommend the new Cozy Cabins! Perfectly appointed for 2, at the back of the property, so it feels more private, and VERY nicely done for a small, intimate space. Great spot for watching the night sky - loads of windows!
