Super!

I love this place! It is a 50’s motel beautifully redone. Everybody has different needs but all mine were met here. Great wi-fi, decent TV, microwave, frig., quiet, good parking, adequate breakfast choices, friendly owners, VERY clean, comfortable bed. Overall a lovely spot to stay and I would definitely return.

Class and comfort

The Yardarm is a wonderful place to stay. This completely redone 1950’s motel has the most comfortable beds, quality bedding and heaps of pillows I wish I could taken home! The owners are visible every day but not intrusive. Grounds are delightful complete with a fire pit and Adirondack chairs. Wood, fire starter and bug spray are readily available. If you like to sit comfortably outside your room on a porch, walk your pet in peaceful silence in the woods behind the motel, know your trash is recycled and generally enjoy fresh air and quality comfort the Yardarm is the place for you Heather, Frank and Joe.

10/10 Exceptional

Cozy and very convenient. Beautiful landscaping. Clean room and close to many things. The staff were very friendly. Highly recommend.
Jeffrey, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The main problem during our stay was the noise. The walls are extremely thin — we could hear everything, even the people in the next room using their microwave. We were placed between two rooms that seemed to be traveling together, and they partied and slammed their doors throughout the night. By 3 AM, we had to ask them to quiet down. I even have video of how loud it was. It’s also evident that the hotel is aware of the noise issue, as there are white noise machines already placed in the rooms. Unfortunately, even with that, we barely slept. The hotel itself has potential, but room placement and noise control need serious attention.
Gloria, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms very small, bathroom tiny (only 1 person can fit) and old furniture. Overpriced.
