Overall it's not a bad place. We got in early and the staff let us check in. We needed to get ready for a wedding so that was really helpful. The air unit was a little noisy, but everything else was fine.

Oregon Women's Club Antique Show stay.
Very nice hotel with two restaurants on site. Waitress and staff super friendly. Country setting five minutes to town. This was our second year staying and will do so in the future. Highly recommend.

Good value and great location
I was in town visiting family. This was a great place to stay and be close to their house. The view of the water was amazing as was the balcony room. The only downfall was for being a family type hotel, it would have been great if they had board games we could have used. They have a nice area that could be used for a Continental breakfast but only provided coffee and tea. Sometimes those little extras go a long way. Overall it was a nice experience and would stay there again.
