Property is run down, but price reflected it. Some of the outlets in our room didn’t work, has to call staff to get our fridge working. But the views and lake access were great. Also enjoyed my little porch on my room.

I booked a deluxe king bedroom but was given a room with 2 queen beds. The towel had a big show mark on it. Someone stepped on it and it wasn't washed. There were many bugs in the room and the comforters had a stinking smell.

It was OK. Nothing fancy - straight out of the 60’s?? Room was ‘clean’ but felt damp due to humidity. They think a full size bed is the same as a queen sized bed. Mattress leaves much to be desired!! Bathroom fan/vent so clogged that it sounded like a whining dog! It’s a tourist attraction town so rooms are overpriced to begin with- but definitely not worth $180 a night. Would I stay there again-No.

Book this place thinking I was getting a cabin turned out to be a room. The area was very dark and felt unsafe at night. When I entered the room none of the lights worked except for the bathroom light and the tv was on. It was about midnight when we got there and we instantly left to find another place to stay.

While driving north we were trying to find a hotel for the night…not many options Read the reviews it was bad. We thought we were getting a cabin for the price, but got a motel room. Very outdated and mold on the bedding. Complained to the front desk and asked for compensation. They said they could not do it. They gave me a corporate number, but no one answers and there is no answer machine.

Staff was good, very friendly. A broken towel bar in our room was fixed quickly. The pictures on the Expedia web site were deceiving. They did not reflect the room we rented. The description said that the room slept 4, but there was only a single king-size bed in the room. General condition of the room was not good. The bathroom door would not close. Baseboard heating units appeared to be falling apart.

We filed a complaint with our card company. The motel smelt moldy and musty. People was checking in and coming back and requesting a refund. The rooms were moldy and had bugs, bed bugs. The hostess quit on the spot and the owners came rushing in there trying to fix it. Our card company will be conta ting you.
