The Outpost0

The Outpost is perfectly located within walking distance to all the attractions in Grand Rivers. The General Market Cottage is very cool. It is equipped with remote controlled A/C & Heat, TV, Coffee Maker, Mini-Fridge, Full Size Shower!!! with plenty of towel holders and area for luggage. Traveling by motorcycle and being caught by the rain prior to arriving. We were able to pull our motorcycles right up to the cottage and unload our gear. Once inside, we were able to hang and layout our gear to dry. Take a good shower with plenty of water pressure from a shower head placed high enough to spray down onto us rather than having to crouch down as we have experienced in other cottages. Then, hang out on the front porch with a beverage enjoying the sound of the rain pattering on metal roof. Once the rain let up, we visited the Tap House Between The Lakes and met an awesome bartender that offered all kinds of info on the area. Throughout our over 4,000 mile motorcycle trip, we encountered a lot of shortcomings at places we visited to include negative attitudes and poor service. Shortages in staff and products across the board is the obvious cause. The Outpost and The Tap House Between the Lakes were positive, engaged in welcoming visitors, made us feel at home and followed up with us during our stay. A very Big and Special THANK YOU to Ashton, YOU FREAKIN ROCK. Stay positive and Thank You for making us feel at home.

Our stay could have been longer.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!! I can’t think of anything negative to say! I am actually planning another stay already! Location was PERFECT!!!! There are so many things to do, places to see and eat… AND all within a short drive and even walking distance!!! Ashton was AMAZING!!!! She was SO friendly and helpful, with suggestions of places to eat and things to do….a perfect concierge!!!! She is definitely an AWESOME young lady…an asset to the property!!!! The cabin was so clean and the decor was perfect to the period they were going for! we stayed in the Blacksmith. I LOVED the electric fireplace!!!! I can’t wait to go back when we can have a fire in the fire pit and enjoy the night. I’m even hoping to take my family back and rent 3 cabins!!!

There was nothing I can say I didn’t like.

Cute little cabins made from portable buildings. The interior was cute, bed was comfortable, showers had lots of pressure with plenty of hot water, new AC, coffee maker and ice cold small fridge. To be sure, these aren't plush, but for a visit in Grand Rivers, for the money, they are perfect as they are clean, private, comfortable, close to everything and ll you need. Nice touch with his/hers bath robes!

Hot tub was dirty and unusable.

Perfect location, within walking distance of several businesses. Staff was extremely responsive, friendly, and down to earth. The room was super clean and we had a fantastic time!

My only two complaints are that the hot tub would not heat up and I wish there had been more than one trash can....but honestly, I couldn't have been happier. What a great idea and super cute 😍

the room was quiet, and the bed was ultra soft. shower was perfect pressure and boy did that huge shower head throw the water. felt extra clean using this shower !!

The TV could have been bigger, I know you’re supposed to explore while in the mountains, but in the end of the day it’s nice to watch a littlE TV to unwind. over all not a big problem, but it asked for a problem and that’s the only thing I can think of.

The motel is actually a little village. We stayed in the "General Store." It was very quiet, with an amazingly quiet air conditioner and all of the conveniences of a luxury motel. It had a front porch, complete with rocking chairs. It also had a picnic area which was a gathering place for friends and soon to be friends, alike.

We liked everything.

Loved the location and the room was very clean and the bed was comfortable.

I only have 2 complaints. 1. Our hot tub was a little dirty when we got there, leaves and stuff at the bottom. 2. The house isn't very sound proof so we got woke up a lot with people moving around.

The place is super cute and very clean. It was very easy to "check-in" and communication from the owner was fantastic. It is within walking distance of many great places in Grand Rivers. Definitely a different and fun place to stay!

There were just some small things I would have liked to be different. The inside lighting is either on (very bright) or off. A lamp or dimmer switch would be a good idea. Also, the curtains covering the window on the door are pretty sheer and too short. Not very good for privacy looking right in on the bed.

The location was perfect! We were located right across the street from Patti’s which was very nice to be able to walk to all the shops.

The shower curtain in the bathroom didn’t keep the water in all that well. I’m not sure what could be done about it but it may cause the floors to get damaged if something isn’t done.

Location is perfect. Bed was comfortable, air condition worked good.

Needed more towels. We booked 2 nights and only got 2 towels for 2 people. We also got in the hot tub. So ended up sharing the same towel the second day.
