If your looking for a place that feels like home you'll find it here at blueberry they truly leave the light on for you. Terrance and his wife Haley are amazing and friendly. Rooms are very well taken care of and if need anything they're right there to lend a hand. Plus they allow Esa animals.

Room was really setup well with a hardwood-like floor and a fridge. Bathroom shower was a little confusing (trying to take a shower) but taking a bath isn't the end of the world either. Good location for fishing local lakes.

Definitely would not have let my family stay here if it was still the Tu Lakes Motel. Since under new ownership the whole motel went through a remodel. Rooms were modest, but clean and looked nice. They do have a reception area woth coffee, water, and snacks in the main office Definitely expensive for what you get, however no complaints.

Myself and my friend, have been guests for a little while. The staff, Miss Haile and Mr Terrance have been and are very polite, professional and I couldn't ever ask for anything more. Miss Kim, housekeeping on Sunday and Monday, also does a good job too. Now let's not forget Josh, the caretaker after the office closes at night, also a wonderful asset to this surene, comfortable, quiet and appealing motel, does a great job too. The office is only open 10am until 6pm and it throws some people off but I am soooo, glad I didn't let that detour us. I absolutely love this place and I recommend that if you want to get out a bit then keep the Blueberry Hill Motel fresh on your mind and you will not regret the decision at all. Thanks again for all of you and this, what I call, the place I am and want to be, blessed and peaceful.

I have stayed at this motel several times and have always found it to be very clean. I have never seen any type of bugs or gotten any type of bites. The staff is very friendly and the manager is always asking if we need anything. He is also well informed of the area businesses. The country setting makes for a quiet stay. We also love going to the lake just down the street.

this place is amazing! Terrance and Hailie are some truly amazing and kind people. they provided my partner and i with such a nice place to stay at a very fair rate. plenty of other places in the area were far more expensive for the same, if not worse quality of a stay. they have snacks, coffee, and waters in the office for people whenever they would like within business hours. i was also allowed to bring my cats with the motel allowing ESA, which is so great for someone like me. i will always recommend this place to anyone needing a place to stay in the area :3
