Second time I booked this room, first time was great, this time the carpet was so dirty that I had to ask the owner to cover part of it with a carpet, fire alarm rung Saturday morning for 2 hours, Saturday night briefly and Sunday morning for one hour, the balcony net door was not sliding easily, bathroom door was not closing easily, there were drawing from previous visitor on room mirror (could be seen only under certain angles though), a plastic piece of the toilet flush was broken when we arrived. Good thing is that the owner is very handy and responsive and that he is planning to replace the carpet. You could enjoy your stay if you have more luck than me as the hotel is well situated in front of the lake.

Really cute motel. Loved the environment. The only issue is that some guests insist on smoking on their decks. No staff around to enforce.

Waterview? More Like Fire Alarm Hell

Worst stay of my life. $450 for two nights in a dusty, musty room with towels that smelled like mildew and beds full of crumbs. I had to use my inhaler constantly because of the dust. Then came the nightmare: fire alarms blasting at 9 a.m. for FOUR hours straight. The blonde cleaning lady barged into our room (while my friend was in a towel) accusing us of smoking, then told me to “calm down.” We ate breakfast outside because it was too loud inside. The fire department came into our room 15 times and even admitted the system was outdated. It didn’t end there!!! alarms again at midnight, then again at 7 a.m., and every 15 minutes after that. Basically paid to stay inside a fire drill simulator. When I asked the owner for a partial refund, he argued, made excuses, and told me it was “out of his control.” Sir, you’re the OWNER. Take responsibility. No communication, no customer service, no care for guests. Save your money, save your sanity, and sleep literally ANYWHERE else — your car, a park bench, even the side of the road would’ve been more restful than this place.

Terrible 1st floor room. The Room has a bad smell, too old. Small, ceiling is too low, crawling bugs, spiders. Weird room. Portable A/C was too loud and impossible to sleep. We could not sleep and left earlier.

Comfortable motel-style room, good bed and great view. Plenty of hot water, but the shower which was located beside the bathroom, was uncomfortable and potentially dangerous to use because of very slippery plastic floor and sides. Needs at minimum a rubber safety mat, and also a grab bar! Coffee maker in room produced tasteless brew - machine and /or coffee supplies need updating!

The building and property was very old and outdated. A tired building with VHS machine and a tiny TV. A building is available to microwave and eat in but it was old with cobwebs, very low lighting, and dark and drabby. It’s was nice down by the water and there was a little gazebo, chairs, swings, and a few other activities available. There was internet and there are places to eat nearby although nothing is close enough to walk to. The room itself as well as the dining area needs updating and a good clean. We didn’t see anybody around working on the property or keeping things tidy and clean. Would NOT recommend.
