AMAZING LOCATION!

We were here only one night, but loved our stay! First, the staff is amazingly nice and kind! The location cannot be beat! It's legit right on the lake! We walked everywhere and the rooms are great! Highly recommend and was kind of sad we didn't have longer! We made our own dinner and sat outside at the table looking at the lake!

Homey Stopover

Amazing stop over in a lovely lakeside village. Staff was welcoming and friendly. Room and property were immaculate. Hotel offered beautiful views and walking proximity to all the town center has to offer. The kitchenette allowed us to grab some pasta at the grocery store and have a relaxed “home cooked” meal.
