We barely used our car during our stay. The staff were very friendly and the views from the deck are stunning! The rooms are equipped with everything you need and very comfortable. You can tell the owners and management go the extra mile to ensure their guests are comfortable. We were surprised that the rooms were so affordable compared to what you get. Amazing value for what you pay!

Reviewed Mar 22, 2026-- This was our fourth time staying at Knock Out View, and it continues to be one of our favorite places to visit. I went with my partner again, and as always, it was such a relaxing and special experience. The atmosphere is peaceful and perfect for couples, and the views are absolutely beautiful — especially during sunrise and sunset. It’s the kind of place where you can truly unwind and enjoy quality time together. The rooms are consistently clean, comfortable, and well taken care of, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. That consistency is really what keeps us coming back. We’ve never been disappointed, and it definitely won’t be our last visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a calm, scenic getaway. --
