We are excited about our partnership with America's Best Value Inn in Three Rivers! They offer exclusive rates just for us! In keeping with our goal to stay affordable this hotel will offer lower rates than we've had in a while. It's also a shorter drive to Pine View. It's a new facility that will give us friendly service with clean, comfortable rooms. There are some nice restaurants close by too! Three Rivers welcomes us with open arms! It's easy to find. Just turn east on Broadway off US131 in Three Rivers and you're a 7 iron away from their entrance on the left! You'll see a Meijer store at that intersection as well. You may also find a map link on their website when you click on it below.
