Disliked: Amenities
The overall stay was good and I could see where their making upgrades, but trying to run the lodge with one or two people doesn't work well. The location was great for attending the Whiskey Festival, it was close to everywhere we wanted to go and that was great! I'm glad that it was a guy trip, because my wife wouldn't have wanted to stay there. Make more upgrades and it would a place worth coming back to, thank you. Semper FI

the hotel is at excellent location, but has seen better days. Room was clear but at mediocre design and bed was a little noisy. The killer was the pool pump located at the center of the complex, it constantly made a squeaking noise.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The mattress and remote were held together with duct tape. The floor left your feet a interesting brown color. The lobby had the workers snacks sitting under the coffee table and the breakfast was scary looking enough we decided to pass on eating it despite booking a place with breakfast being our priority. The pool was closed and hadn't looked cleaned in a long time. And overall we laughed at how ridiculous it really seemed. Bravo on the photos of the advertisement because they managed to make it look much nicer. The view was wonderful and it was cheap. So if your willing to laugh and be a little uncomfortable it's okay.

Liked: Cleanliness
There were plenty of outlets in the room, which was good. The bed was just the right size, and very clean. The other furniture was a bit shabby, however. The view was very nice; didn't use the pool,, but I would have been glad to if we'd had time. The ice machine was useless. You need to replace it.

Safe, clean, good location for the weekend event we need to be, proprietor tried his best to accommodate our party of 3 rooms on a weekend when practically all hotels are fully booked. Have been using this property for the last several years, like the quietness and easy parking and safe location. This property has been updated with new flooring, shower, window blinds and bedding by new owner. Simply clean and safe.

The location was perfect for our family visit and the rooms were nice; hotel has some great views. The breakfast was very basic (waffle maker, toaster, cereal dispensers), had to “heat your own” breakfast sandwiches, but they were good. Breakfast beverages were available. The staff was friendly, room rates were great and we had no issues! Would definitely stay again!
