The key point why we chose to stay here is that they offered a breakfast every morning from 7-9, which of course as a family makes it economical. We stayed 4 nights, there was a decent breakfast the first morning, but after that, practically nothing. We had eggs, pancakes, sausage, home fries which went down to cereal and pastries every morning after that. First the chef was sick, next day a death in the family, after that we didn't even bother to ask. There was a dispenser of cold orange Tang for orange juice, it appears they just kept adding ice, by our last morning it was just orange colored water. A shame, such a nice place, but doesn't live up to expectations.

The staff were patient with us during our check-in and when we discovered a few days after check-out that we forgot something in the room, not only did they still have the item, they shipped it to us. Thank you for being so considerate!

The throw pillow on the bed needs cleaning, and there was no holder for the TP...just a roll sitting on top of the toilet. Also, had to have the electronic door key re-set twice.

Our original room smelled and the A/C leaked all over the carpet. I went to desk and staff was friendly and swapped our room out asap. The second room was much better and didn’t smell bad. The bathrooms could use an overhaul. The restaurant was great the service good and the food delicious. The next morning the breakfast was not laid out by 7 and there were only old muffins and toast. It was explained they were short staffed so there would not be a hot breakfast that day. We decided to go somewhere else to eat for a good meal and coffee. It’s unfortunate as they list a free breakfast and we had to purchase a meal unexpectedly. The coffee was awful also thank goodness there was a diner a mile down the road. Overall the staff were friendly and helpful but I would stay elsewhere.

The view was nice but the room was disgusting. Carpet had stains every inch the beds had nasty stains. I felt so dirty staying in the room. Breakfast was okay. Served powdered eggs, sausage and under cooked potatoes both days with the option of corn flakes or an orange. Served oj of some sort but the cups they give you is sample size.

Upstairs lakeside rooms were quiet and bright. Fridge and microwave in the room was helpful. Good to have ceramic mugs and glasses in the bedroom. All the front desk staff we dealt with were very helpful. Breakfast cook (Paul) was friendly and helpful. Would have preferred if the disposable cups, plates and cutlery used at breakfast were recyclable or compostable.
