Loved the proximity to the lake, the boat ramp. The restaurant on site was good, food and service was good. Reasonably priced for a resort restaurant. I thought the breakfast offering was very limited, lots of room for improvement. Overall good stay. Would stay again.

The property is absolutely gorgeous, and the grounds are impeccably maintained with stunning views all around. However, the hotel itself is in need of a major facelift. The rooms feel very dated, with an unpleasant musty smell and a muggy atmosphere that detracts from the overall experience.

This hotel is in need of an upgrade!! The room had a musty smell when we walked in and the carpeting was dirty!! Lamps were wobbly. When I sat on the end of the bed the whole head lifted!! I think it was beautiful back in 1950 but, sadly, has not been kept up to date.

Cute hotel to an extent. There was lots of trash in and around the property, and the pool needs cleaned and the plants surrounding it replaced. For the price you pay they seriously need to update their rooms. The small store in the lobby is overpriced and they do not offer complimentary breakfast or forgotten supplies.

The property looked amazing in the photos online. Given the time of year that I stayed it was still pretty. My issues were that there were buckets throughout the building to collect water leaking from the roof/ the above floor. The complimentary breakfast was extremely disappointing. Cereal,bagels or toast and coffee or juice. They had warmer trays out like there should have been warm foods but sadly they were empty because no one put any food in them.

Needs Major Improvement

The rooms are decent but poorly maintained. There are no USB ports. The Wifi was inconsistent. The TV and channel selection was excellent. The pool area, common areas, and dining room was filthy two days in a row. The breakfast NEVER provided fruit or muffins. There were no bagels the second day. The entire breakfast area was NEVER cleaned either day. The floors in the dining room haven’t been properly cleaned in months or years. We will not be back anytime soon.
