The moment I arrived I was welcomed. The accommodations are clean. Very comfortable and inviting. The river, the bridge, and the grain elevator is a spectacular view. Thank you Bridewaters Inn for you and the dog's hospitality. I plan on coming back in the future. LEA .W.

The room was clean and had an air conditioner that was in good condition. The bathroom was clean and stocked with towels and toilet paper. There was a large LED screen T.V along with end tables. The manager/owner was very helpful and accommodating. I enjoyed my stay and will recommend this motel.
