White Caps Motel and RV Park

Port Clinton

Clean, comfortable room (we had the king bed), friendly staff, and excellent price. The rooms are not new, but ours had refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, remote controlled A/C with thermostat, and cable TV with on demand streaming.
Great location for a home base during Port Clinton / Lake Erie visit.

Excellent price; friendly staff.

We stayed for one night, so I didn't use things like the television to review. Though the TV did look new and modern. We just weren't there long enough to need to watch it. I'll base this review on my onw night's experience. I reminded myself this is only costing me $113 for the night and that was the lens I was looking through. We go to Port Clinton and/or Put In Bay every year. This was a last-minute trip. We have stayed in many different establishments.

Upon arriving, we checked in. Check-in was extremely easy. We were given a key and instructions for check out. The woman at the counter (maybe the owner) was extremely friendly and let us know she was available. She gave us a phone number to reach her. We stayed in room 1. 

We went to our room and my husband reset the clock since it was blinking. When we returned from Put In Bay the clock was blinking again. Everything on the powerstrip was off until the lights were turned on. With some experimentation, we figured out that if you just leave the big light switch (when you walk in the door) on and turn off the lights at the actual light, the electricity on the powerstrip stays on. This was important because we both have sleep apnea and needed to run our machines all night. Once we figured out that mystery, the rest was a breeze. I'm mentioning this because I saw in an earlier review that someone had a problem with this. 

I felt like a lot of love was. put into running the place, the flowers outside the lounge were beautiful. We were only there a night so I had no reason to go into the lounge, but I did enjoy the flowers. I also appreciated the floors. I have stayed at many hotels and everyone has had carpeted floors. If you have issues with mold and mildew carpeted floors can mess you up. I am one of those people who has such an issue, so I was so happy to see the floors were not like that. 

Our only real issue was the beds and that could partially be chalked up to be our own fault. We had to sleep in separate beds. We are not small people and the bed was small.  Also, there was only one nightstand it was in between the full-size and the twin-size bed, and as I said we both have to wear sleep apnea masks at night. I think if there had been a larger bed with nightstands on each side, the room would have been equal to Island House rooms except that it isn't in the middle of town. 

My husband works with computers and electricity and was troubled that the wall socket moved a bit and with the way the strip was up. So, I guess there were two things we found troubling. However. This room was not expensive and I've stayed in rooms that were close to this that cost much more. 

Check-out was even easier than check-in. I would recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to save money.

You get maybe a little more than what you paid for here

Previous positive reviews could not have come from people who have actually stayed here! We had the "king" suite. Where to begin - could barley walk into the office as the steps were over grown with weeds. The grass on front of our room desperately needed to be cut. Let's go inside the room. One working light bulb in the whole room. The bathroom is falling off the wall. The shower is so tiny  you can't move once you are in it. If you leave the bathroom door open it blocks the door to the room. We told the owner several times that the window air conditioner wasn't working. When the room reached 86 my husband went to the office and she said well it's supposed to provide cold air - told us to unplug it and plug it back in. It was very old but seemed to help. There is a section of the floor that feels like you are going to go through it when you walk on it and makes shifting noises when no oneis on it! NEVER AGAIN!!

Never again!

Accommodations were clean and comfortable in this 1950s style motor court. Front desk staff were welcoming as well. Nightly rates were very reasonable, especially considering how much room rates have increased in the lodging industry this year. 

Clean, comfortable and very reasonably priced

The hotel is bit old but nicely maintained , very clean and have good services. The most thing which impressed me and my family is their hospitality. They are really helpful and humble. Overall I liked their  room , cleanliness, and service .

Really heart touching hospitality - Nice room and service

Great place to stay.  Staff is very friendly and helpful, helped us find things to see and do.  We will recommend to our family and friends.  Close to boat ramp and Portage River.  We will be staying here again.

Lake Erie trip

I would definitely recommend White Caps Motel for folks who are staying in the area. Very comfortable rooms, great central location and great value. The rooms were very clean as well. I will definitely stay here the next time I come to the Lake Erie area!

Great place to stay!

We have returned here yearly when we come up for a fishing trip. The rooms are wonderful! Good beds, plenty of hot water and water pressure in the shower. They have a really good ice maker in their community room so you can get plenty of ice to keep your fish nice and cold. The fish cleaning facility they provide is great for do it yourselfers like us. 
    We always grill the evening after our trip. We enjoy the peace and quiet as apposed to being in the downtown area of PC. The staff at check in is very helpful and let you know if you have any issues you can call them for assistance. Just a wonderful place all around.

White Caps can always count on our business. 

Stayed on a fishing trip with my  brother and nephew. These people are great and the location is convenient. Launch ramp to Portage River is right next door.  Rooms are very clean and beds are extremely comfortable. Planning on another trip to the area in May and will stay here. 

Always Nice

Nice clean hotel and campground that is an excellent place for guys on a fishing trip. I highly recommend it for that. While there's not a thing bad about the place, prissy women won't like it. Probably isn't fancy enough for them.😁
