Smoking Policy:  Indoor smoking is permitted in the garage/air lock only.  A fee of $100 + any damages will be charged for unauthorized smoking in rooms.  This fee includes extensive cleaning and 1 night lost revenue.

Motel rooms are designated by Bergland Township as "sleeping units".  No hazardous materials may be stored in rooms.  This includes (but is not limited to) gasoline, propane, oil, power augers, trolling motors, and any other equipment containing these materials / fuels.  These items may be stored in your vehicle or in our garage, though we do not accept responsibility for lost or damaged belongings.

Cooking is prohibited in "sleeping units", however, we do provide a coffee maker and beverage refrigerator in your room, for your convenience.  Please use the Guest Kitchen for your cooking and dining needs.

Carpet cleaning Fee:  While normal wear and tear is understandable and expected, use normal precautions in avoiding carpet stains.  Should the carpet in your room require steam cleaning (as opposed to spot cleaning), as the result of your stay, you will be required to pay the cost of cleaning, which will be not less than $75.  This fee includes general steam cleaning and 1 night lost revenue. Extensive carpet soiling is considered "damage".  (Note: if your boots are dirty, consider removing them before tracking across the carpets).

Most of you (courteous folks that you are) really don't need to be told all of this stuff.   I do hope, though, that it helps to show our commitment to giving you quality lodging during your visit.  We hope you have a pleasant stay.  Gus & Nettie
