Good place for a night rest
A nice quick stop for gas and overnight rest just before you back on the road. Not a luxurious place to stay but good enought to stop and get some sleep.
Excellent family accommodation for road trip in which booking was made last minute. My only criticism would be that the sheets don’t fit the bed so well and came off easily. Nice town and nice people.
Checking in was easy and it was nice to have the gas station, general store, and food options in a walkable distance. The neigborhood was cute and quaint during our evening walks with our pup.
the room is very spacious! not much to do in big pine but bishop is only 15 mins away.

A convenient spot in Big Pine. Not the greatest experience though, felt a little run down and the property was a second priority to the convenient shop/gas station.
Fast check in and check out. Room was clean and had a kitchen that was fully stocked. The store was within feet of the room and it was easy to stock up on food and supplies.

Property was OK, but very expensive for the small room. Most restaurants in town were closed down.
When you think about a motel located behind a gas station all sorts of negatives are conjured up. However you would be wrong about this place. It was quiet, clean and had all the amenities a traveler would need. This is not a quaint cottage but it is a quiet, clean place to spend a night or two
