Was a pleasant surprise. I have seen this hotel numerous times over the years but never stayed. It was a last minute trip to the hotel as we were supposed to camp but a big thunderstorm was forecasted so to the hotel we went. Great view of the lake, hot tub, sauna and yummy cookies in the lobby. Breakfast was good with great selection. Would definitely stay here again!

We really liked this place. The walk out to the lake was wonderful and easily accessible. The staff made us feel welcome but also allowed for space and privacy. The location is great and the lake was the main draw for us. The traffic noise from the highway was noticeable but not a huge problem. We will book again.

Very nice lake views from my room. The staff was friendly. The wood floors in the rooms above create a lot of banging noise. The breakfast was adequate; enough items to satisfy.

The rooms are a decent size, the beds were comfortable The view is really nice, every room faces the lake We were charged a $10 parking fee and when I questioned her about it, she said they charge the people that book through Expedia. I thought that was cheezy, there was no shortage of parking....

We stayed as a group of eight, and the experience was fantastic. The lake view, especially in the evening, was beautiful and made for a perfect backdrop. We had a fun barbecue and found the staff to be genuinely helpful and welcoming. Overall, it gave us a peaceful and memorable time, and we’d absolutely recommend it.
