Standard queen room was clean and spacious. Bed was comfortable. It had a two-person shower, with two showerheads, something I had never seen. Breakfast was continental, with mostly prepackaged pastries and cereals. There was also yogurt, hard-boiled eggs, and a pancake machine. There is a nice small public balcony on second floor, and it overlooks the lake.

I was pleasantly surprised by the accommodations. I stayed in a corner room and the windows and deck looking out on the water and marina were so lovely. The shower has two heads; the hot tub fills quickly and the water pressure and temperature is excellent. I did not eat the continental breakfast but cookies in the evening were appreciated and delicious! I could tell the people who work here care about their customers stay.

The place was very clean and the rooms were very spacious. However the beds were uncomfortable. The mattress and pillows weren't the most comfortable. What was strange was the room with one queen had double sinks and the room with the double queens had only one sink. That was a downfall. Other than that the place was clean.
