Chandelier.
We stayed one night, and would've stayed longer if we had time.
Next time we are in town we would love to stay again.

Beautiful lake view, nice room, unpleasant smell.
The view is nice even the decor for hotel is nice. Just some old outdated smell inside the room that unpleasant. In the beds is only have thin comforter. The thick blankets inside cabinet we just find it in the morning by the time we’re leaving. So we have to turn in the gas fireplace at night to keep us not freeze. My daughter felt like out of air in the room because the gas fire place. For adventure the room is nice overlooking the beautiful lake. For comfort need to get rid of the old smell don’t know how. I feel my clothing smell that way too when I got home. But the check in guy is very helpful giving us map and where interesting thing to go. TV is not working but there’s lots to see rather than watching TV.

This was the most uncomfortable room i have stayed. The hotel was not handicap accessible. The only seating was on barstool style chairs at a table that the relacement tv was propped up on. I requested additional towels and wash cloths(2 of each) but not enough was available. The room made you feel uncomfortable that you did not want to be in it.

Stayed in Room #3, the heater made cracking noise.. making it difficult to sleep. The water in the tub would not drain properly so showering was having water to your ankles. At night time there was 2 small cockroaches in the bathroom and 1 in the kitchen. Issues reported to office staff.

This hotel was clean and comfortable. Check-in was quick and easy. The room was spacious and clean. TV and internet did their thing. The bathroom was clean and the shower had plenty of strong hot water. The surrounding area was safe and quiet and walkable. I would stay here again.

This place was amazing for my family stay. It was very clean an comfortable. My kids loved being able to wonder around the property exploring safely an the playground was a nice bonus for them. The gentleman at the front desk was always so kind an the only downfall really is the water front area isn’t where I’d choose to swim. It was pretty dirty. But drive 5 minutes down the road, an it’s perfect. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

This place has a lot of potential. It is run down, but was clean, and was just fine for the night. It was a great price for the holiday weekend. Its not the Ritz, so ignore the negative reviews, your paying for motel quality.

Our room is a little dirty. The mattresses are a little hard. The desk to the drawer had no bottom. They did say they’re gonna remodel soon.
