Best place to stay within a full easy walk down town. With a golf course, zip line,hike and bike trail system, and a 100 yrd walk across the street to take a swim in the lake. Come start here to support your north lake experiences.!!

The property was in a great location. It was an older building but clean. Parking on site was good. They are short on staffing and use texting or voicemail to communicate.

The property is overlooking the lake and is the biggest plus. The staff was courteous and proposed another room at check in just as an option. Overall the property needs a serious upgrade.
