Love staying right next to the beach and water. The ice cream parlor is a wonderful addition and the ice cream is fantastic. Our room was very quiet, and we had a nice relaxing stay.

The motel is a gimmick. Its old and dirty. Smells. Absolutely NOTHING like it shows in the pictures. They should not be on Expedia. They are charging prices that are extortionate for filth, stale musty rooms, stained carpets..

The beach was nice for a short stay. Loved the ice cream shop on site. The outside of the property looks dated, but the rooms have been updated and were clean. I would definitely there again.

Updated mom and pop motel!

The hotel was just what we expected. Very budget friendly. We especially appreciated the barrel sauna/swim! The place is old but has been nicely updated. Tight rooms like most of the old mom and pop motels. Very clean. We would stay again.

I love staying at Spirit Lake even when it is -14 in middle of winter when visiting my Aunt in Menahga. Because they are always warm, cozy, and room is ready and waiting for me. There is breakfast in town and Greenwood is right up the road. Thanks for being great!

The pictures on the site are 100% nothing like the property. I booked through Expedia last minute as it was to cold to camp. When I booked I was 300 or so miles away and it was intended for the next day. The reservation went through for the same day which would not work. I immediately called the motel. The man said go through Expedia for the refund but we have nothing available the next day. Which we found out wasnt true. I then called Expedia., who called the motel who said we will refund the first day if they book the following day but it will cost 8 dollars more. I agreed. We showed up the next day paid for the second night with the understanding the first nights fee would roll into the charge. Went to the open room and it was dirty smelled musty and we left. Expedia then informed me no reimbursement was coming. So we paid for 2 nights didn't stay 5 minutes, were lied to, etc. This has never happened to us before. A total dishonest buisness. If I was local to here I would take this to court.
