I like staying here every time I go to sweet home. Owner was very helpful even though my flight was delayed and I had to check in very late. I left something there and he was able to coordinate a return for it.

Convenient location next to a good restaurant and across from the lake, although the lake is not accessible there. DVDs are available, free to use, in the lobby but we didn't have a player in our room. Not visible in the photos is the RV park that this Inn sits in, but they were mostly quiet. Our room was switched from the one I had reserved online, less attractive, no explanation. Not a lot of options in the area so it served as a decent place to sleep for the night.

Great place to stay, right next to the lake and The Point restaurant. It was quiet, even though it’s on the highway. Bed was comfy, dvd selection was fun, and the bathroom was huge. Would stay again.

This place was great! This was the first “inn” we’ve stayed! I liked the personal feel about it. The owners were really nice and accommodating. We also liked that there was a restaurant to the right and left of the inn. And we had a pretty lake view!

Sitting on the deck overlooking the lake first thing in the morning, with a cup of coffee as a deer walks by. What more needs to be said - besides, comfortable, clean, inviting. Great place to stay.
