The room was nice but noticed there was a little gap under the door when we closed it. Sure enough, a mouse squeezed thru and scared the wife. I brought it up with the front desk and they made a note of it. That was the only opening I saw so that must have been where it came in. Other than that, I didn't have any complaints.

The stairs were hard to navigate, but we are seniors. We were super disappointed that the fireplace didn’t work. The room was decorated nice and the kitchen was a plus. Terry the manager was extremely nice. Part of the disappointment was Expedias fault. They listed it as having breakfast, it was continental. All and all it is a good location and fairly priced.

We were happy with this property. The location was great although we weren’t in a room that had a Lake view, It was a beautiful location. A little bit disappointed about the fireplace, not working, but the owner said she’s going to be making improvements on all of the amenities.

Great location

Location is great walking distance to village right on the lake it’s budget friendly but outlets were loose we could barely keep our phones charged and had to try one outlet after another that wasn’t about to fall out of the wall the deadbolt wasn’t working the coffee machine did not work. The fireplaces were broken But it’s rustic and quiet the staff is friendly and helpful
