"During our 7-day stay, waking up each morning to see the sunlight hitting Deer Park Heights across the lake was a highlight. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the atmosphere is quite peaceful. While the location is a bit outside the town center, the hotel provides a very convenient and punctual hourly shuttle. This was a huge plus, as it saved us from the stress of driving and hunting for parking in town. The staff were incredibly friendly and patient with all our requests—overall, a high-quality experience."
"The buffet breakfast was an awesome spread of food suitable for everyone.
Our room was both clean and comfortable with the bonus of a big bed very comfy pillows and a balcony with a view.
To have our car safe and valet parked overnight was a real bonus."
