Colton Point Motel

We only stayed here one night, passing through the area. We wanted to see the PA Grand Canyon, and it’s very convenient to that. The rooms are quite plain, but they are comfortable and clean, with a mini fridge and a microwave. We didn’t get to enjoy the lake, because the weather was not great, but it’s very picturesque. The owners are very friendly and helpful, and showed us some walking options in the area. The PA Grand Canyon is really beautiful, and worth visiting. We went in to Wellsboro for dinner, and found a very nice place there. They prepared a delicious breakfast for us at the Motel. I would recommend this place if you’re not looking for a fancy motel, but one in a comfortable setting. I would go again.

I was traveling alone and fishing my way up through Central PA ultimately to end up in Rochester by the following day. I stayed out a bit too long fishing Cedar Run and got caught in a big rain storm. I didn’t have reservations anywhere but wanted to spend the evening in the area because I had time to fish in the morning. I didn’t have cell coverage while on Cedar Run . Truth be told I was driving these back roads hoping to pop out on a main road back with cell coverage where I could then figure out what hotel options I had figuring I would end up in Wellsboro. When I did pop out on a main road I quickly found Colton Point. It looked welcoming so I pulled in and fortunately they had availability. Here’s what I would want to know in deciding where to stay: Exterior- inviting …it’s what attracted me to stop . Hospitality - Excellent! Cleanliness - Excellent Mattress - very comfortable Pillow- comfortable ..had variety Water pressure - excellent Breakfast - excellent home cooked Value - excellent Owners- husband and wife team .. very pleasant and helpful . They are very attentive to making sure your stay is a positive experience. I’d stay again in a minute. Oh yeah…it was John who showed me how to download Google Maps so it runs offline! He also gave me some alternate streams to check out . Thanks John!

John and his family were great hosts. The motel was occupied by several snowmobilers during our stay. He was very helpful in instructing everyone where to park to minimize congestion, as well as being a resource for info (we were new to this area). He worked hard to make sure a number of us had what we needed and were comfortable. The room was clean and well-kept. I would recommend wearing slippers when it is cold out, but we were very comfortable with a good bed and pillows, spacious bathroom, mini-fridge, microwave and fresh coffee in the office each morning. The owner seems to be a man of integrity. Our family will be returning to Colton Point Motel in the future.
