Wooden Boat Inn — Hotel in Town of Clayton

I stayed at the wooden boat motel several time in the last 3 years, but I won't be staying there any more. Each time I stayed it was 5 or 6 nights. The rooms are nice enough for the price, but the bath room and shower stall are very small. I made a reservation in January for a week in June and payed 197.14 deposit. In June I had to cancel a week before my arrival time. According to the cancellation policy that accompanied the reservation confirmation email, If I cancelled less than 30 days before my arrival date I would lose the deposit. I was fine with that because it was less than 30 days. However, Berni charged a second deposit of 197.14 so now I am out $394.28 and Berni's answer was that he could charge me for the entire week but he said he could rent it on Friday so he was ONLY charging me the $394.28. I sent all the email correspondence emails to my credit card company and after a review they took The second $197.14 back from the motel and gave me a credit on my bill. Sooooooooooooo if you make a reservation be careful and get the cancellation policy in print first, because some time thing change after you pay your deposit. THIS IS A FOLLOWUP

“I am positively bedeviled with meetings, et cetera…” except swap “meetings” for “screaming internally at how ICONIC this hotel room is.”

As someone named David, stepping into a full-blown replica of Moira Rose’s bedroom felt… spiritual. Transcendent. A rebirth, if you will. The wig wall alone deserves its own five stars. I stood before it, contemplating which alter ego I’d like to channel. A Little Bit Alexis? Or perhaps Moira’s “Disenchanted Forest” collection? Decisions were made. Photos were taken. Zero regrets.

The room? Just the right amount of chaotic glamour that whispers, “Is it tacky or is it couture?” The answer: YES! I strutted around like I owned the place, adjusting imaginary shoulder pads, practicing my Moira accent, and occasionally scolding myself with a dramatic “Ew, David” just to stay grounded.

The staff? Delightful. They fully understood the assignment encouraging the nonsense and pretending this level of unhinged joy was totally normal.

If you’re a Schitt’s Creek fan, cancel your plans. Sell a kidney if you must. Book this room. Live your truth. Because for one glorious night, I wasn’t just David, I was DAVID and I love...

Pia is the best!!! We have stayed here in past years and the Inn is better than ever! Since Pia has taken over proprietorship, the rooms have been totally upgraded from interior plumbing to interior decorating, and each room has a clever theme running through it. Pia has taken time to make sure that beds are comfortable, linens are fresh and new with additional amenities being available in each room. The screened in porch has coffee ready 24/7, magazines, games, umbrellas for a rainy day, snacks and fresh water. The outside sitting area allows one to make a fire and sit back and enjoy an evening with friends. If one prefers to grill, they can - what is needed is there for you to do so!!!!|There is also a picnic table with an umbrella - just relax and enjoy!|This place is our home away from home. We love Clayton as our once-in-a while escape, and when we head up to the Islands, the Inn is our choice!!!|Thank you, Pia, for making your Inn a warm and secure place for...
