View wise it's a fantastic location. Unfortunately the road it's on is super busy and crossing to get to lake feels dangerous. They are clearly in the middle of renovations, we had a newer room, brand new paint and carpets and bluetooth built in to bathroom mirror which was super cool. However, no safety bars in bathroom, nor a shelf in bathroom and floors are super slippery when wet, and no dresser or places to put or hang clothes so I hope they are still a work in progress. But it was a great one night stop, happy to have found the place, I hope it does well!

Initially check in was good, but we booked for a king suite but we got a double bed room, so we had to go back and show the booking again to change it to king suite, but the rep was some how trying to justify and potray that he did a favor by giving us double bed, But i just need what i booked.at last room was changed. Once in the room, the carpets were so dirty, with stains, bathroom was not clean - had human hairs in the shower, toiletries were not of good quality. Floor of the bathroom had stains and was not mopped. Balnket had stains and honest we didnt even use the blanket.overall, i would not book this place again.. This place needs a face lift.

Pros: Good wifi, Comfortable bed Cons: 1) Inaccurate description and images- I booked a room with 2 queen beds. What we got, was a room with 2 double beds and very congested living/walking space. 2) Listing mentions “Lake view”, however its out waters of the lake. You need to cross a fast paced highway without any signs in order to access “private beach” as they have mentioned. 3) Cleanliness- the carpets have many dirty spots and the bathroom was not provided with enough amenities. No place to hang clothes and towels inside. The shower curtain was EXTREMELY dirty, literally a gag reflex every time you go. 4) Ongoing construction- many rooms are not maintained yet. The one beside us had such a loud noise the entire day. A prior notice from the staff would have been better. 5) Value of money for what you receive is not accurate. I wish there was a way for request a refund.

The staff was great and the price reasonable, but this property is in desperate need of a rehab. The room is very small with poor lighting. I could barely turn around in the shower. The carpet is stained and the room smelled like cigarettes. On the other hand the view is beautiful and the staff was very nice. The property has a lot of potential, but needs a major rehab before I'd stay again.

I rented two rooms. Put thru one charge on my MC but the receptionist stated “she did not know how to put thru charge for 2nd rm. she said 2nd room would be same amount”. No paperwork given for 2nd room. Saw charge on my MC that exceeded quoted price by at least $10. We had no hot water for shower, towels so thin and dingy, no ice in machine, and nobody at desk to help with issues. The breakfast that was included was very subpar at best. (Continental). Nothing was fresh. There was a waffle maker but not a drop of syrup or butter. Fruit (bananas) black. Lighting was extremely poor and could not find a lightswitch to try to make it safer. Needless to say I was very disappointed with our stay.

Our stay unfortunately wasn't the best. 1st it deceptively makes you think it's on the water but is not. It is across the street from a very busy and loud road. The view was very nice but the place needs a lot of updating. The room we had was relatively clean but the bathroom sink had a horrible smell the shower curtain had mold and the paint was coming off the ceiling in the shower. The bathroom vent fan also did not work. Overall not a good experience and definitely would not stay here again.

They are renovating room by room over time. My room, 313, was renovated and nice but needs some details. Needs a shelf in the shower for soap or shampoo or maybe the new dispensers, Needs a chair in the room, no place to sit except the bed. No place to hang clothes. No light by bathroom mirror which would be great. Needs a small table to sit at for people traveling for work and want to use a tablet or laptop.

Th Inn was very outdated, not that clean, there wasn't even a cup in the room, for after I brushed my teeth. I do have to admit that when I realized that our room was on the 3rd floor I did ask for a first-floor room as I could not climb stairs, so maybe that was way we had a very outdated room on the back side of the Inn. The comforters on the beds were pilled, and not the nice. No i would not stay there again.

They called the day before and explained the room I booked was under construction, and they had another room for me and my girlfriend. When I checked in they were nice and discounted my rate. Was told I was given another Queen bed like I booked and it was a full size bed. The bathroom floor was not clean and the shower had no warm water. I did not complain because I was given a discount and didn't want to cause any issues. But I do feel that it is worth sharing because I would not book here again.
