Both rooms smelled very bad like sewage. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. The price for two rooms costs $450.00 and wasn’t worth the money. This place needs serious upgrade.
Wonderful property! It's obvious the property has grown over the years. We stayed in what appeared to be an older wing or original wing of the property. The room was clean and spacious. There were a few obvious patches on the ceiling ( probably storm) related; however that was of no concern. It appears the bathroom was well updated within the last was few years. However, it did take about 5-10 min of running water in the shower to get hot. The view from the room was spaticular! Front office staff at both arrival and departure were great. Given the opportunity, we would definitely stay here again!
It would've been very nice. To have had a room that would and nice to have a water view.
Obviously, a lot of construction going on, but that was no bother. We will be back next year.
Clean, seems newley renovated with modern rooms. Convenient to restaurants, the small quaint, hallmark style town. Friendly service with a beautiful lobby. I'll be back!
I loved everything about the property. The staff was super nice,the rooms were clean. I clean office's so i pay attention to detail. The prices were a bit high but i absolutely loved it! Can't wait to go back.
Everything was great - I even bought my wife and I Paddletail Lodge shirts for an early Christmas- Stayed about 10 nights there-great staff ,clean and a great place -thanks Paddletail Lodge …
We had a delightful stay at PaddleTail. Front desk staff was very welcoming and helpful. Buildings and room were very modern and clean. Love that the boats and local activities were available on site. Plenty of good restaurants nearby.
The staff could not have been friendlier. I wish I’d known about all the construction surrounding the pool and hot tub. It felt like I had an audience when trying to lay out (not the most comfortable situation for a woman alone).
I will recommend staying here to our family when they come into town from now on.
