Rooms r spacious, quiet and clean. Could have better pillows. Staff could be more friendly when we were seen coming or leaving the motel. Would stay again.

My kids liked the lake. Breakfast is nothing special. Beds were just OK. Couldn’t open the windows in the room to get fresh air.

8/10 Good

Nice view of the lake. Didn’t like having to drag the luggage up the stairs to the second floor because there is no elevator.
Carol, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Its a decent hotel. Quiet, mostly clean. Needed to be cleaned behind the bedside table (popcorn and dirty) bedding is older and threadbare in spots. It was comfortable nonetheless. Convenient having a restaurant too. Food there is good, wait staff are friendly and attentive.

Clean. Big rooms.
Todd, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Everything was great, especially loved the outdoor fire pit and surrounding area! Staff was very, friendly and helpful! The only negative was that my friend is disabled, so it would've been better if we had been on the first floor, but not your fault, as when I made the reservation, I n3glected to mention it! Next time! I also apologize for forgetting to leave a tip for the housekeeping staff.😒 All in all, it was a great stay!😊
