Clean and comfortable room. Inn was quiet, and call to service desk was answered immediately. Great views of the lake, especially from the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows. Very happy with our visit.

So so

Parking was fine, check-in was easy - just a code. Room (fish creek) was pretty tiny, although the bathroom was good sized. It would make sense in a bathroom that size to have a vanity rather than a pedestal sink, though. There's no place to put your toiletries. The most interesting thing about the bathroom was the shade on the window, which provided very little privacy. Maybe it was different from the outside looking in, but from the inside looking out, you can see everything going by. I tried to figure out what I might be doing wrong, but there was no other apparent window covering.
The bathroom window covering didn't seem to cover a whole lot.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was nice and cozy, and I loved looking out over the water. Check in was good, but there was no check up on me to see if I needed anything. I reached out for something and about 36 hours later received a response. I didn't mind not having a coffee maker in the room because there was one in the hallway. However, the coffee maker in the hallway did not work well. Also, when I plugged in the kettle for tea, it shorted everything out. The hot water in the shower and bathroom sink was luke warm, not hot enough to shower.

Room appeared clean but bathroom was not; towels piled on floor. No one on premises. After calling all numbers available, the response resulted in a room different and smaller than one previously booked. We are OK and appreciate the sincere apology but are disappointed with not finding room ready

Starting with the positives: View was lovely, bed was comfortable, room was cute. Negatives: No coffee in rooms – and the coffee machine in hallway would not heat after 30 minutes. There was only one type of coffee offered, and no decaf. Room heat and air could not be adjusted. The hotel listed lake front but the beach access was closed. We were instructed to get ice from restaurant but were only given a half container of ice and no access to ice in the morning. Just an incredibly disappointing stay.

Lovely little spot on the south side of the lake. Used it for a trip to Treehouse. Easy to get to and affordable. Would recommend.
