The property was fine, but the doors were definitely not secure which could have posed an issue, we loved the views and the access to the lake, the pool was out of commission our entire stay which is a big deal for the kids.

The property was a little run down. The shower leaked hot water when on and would burn if not careful. The private beach was amazing and made everything worth it. Our room did not have a microwave, but upon rwquest we were brought on. Staff was very nice.

The view from the rooms is great. Firepit and beach very nice! The room has been updated nicely (cottage like)… except the bathroom in room! I can deal with the bathroom being old but the cleaners need to clean it better. I also suggest a broom in each room for the sand that is brought in from the beach. The beds have had their day… clean but they need replaced. People on upper level can be heard through the floor all night if they move alot. The manager is awesome though!!! Super friendly!!!! I would go back all in all.

We felt the location was decent, the rooms were just dirty with what looked like to be mold in the bathroom and stray hairs on the floor. The lock was also falling off the door so we didn’t feel safe with that. The pictures online were very deceiving. Service was good and check in went smooth. We ended checking out of that hotel the same night and switched to another hotel we felt safer in

The floor was very sticky and filthy. There was trash on the floor under the table... not good for dogs or children. The ice machine was broken and according to the people next door who had been there all week it was broken when they got there. The pool had been drained so... there was no pool. On the positive side it was right on the water and the first floor rooms had great porches!

We booked through you(Expedia) and received two confirmation emails only to show up to the place and they told us that we did not have reservations. We are now staying at the quality Inn and paying more per night for a not so nice place WE ARE NOT HAPPY WITH YOU and will never use your service again
