Yes they have shuttles but it's and under-developed area so no sidewalks. I wouldn't plan to walk there.
It's close, but I would Uber or drive there. I felt very safe staying there with my young kids and we found our stay to be enjoyable.
It's close, but our experience there would advise you to check other options. There are several chain motels in the area, non which could be much worse.
