Two places within the property to ear. The view and outdoor patio was very nice.
Chad, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The patio area facing the Lake View was very nice and a great place for dinner. Two very good restaurant options, and there are boat rentals on site reasonably priced.The staff was very pleasant and the breakfast was good. The only drawback (minor) is there is no elevator. I was very glad we chose to stay here for our softball tournament vs the hotel across the street!

Wendy, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

There was a cute outdoor bar. The staff was nice, but the overall property wasn’t as clean as i expected. There was a used bar of soap in shower. The beds were squeaky also.

Angel, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Older building but renovating. Smaller family run Inn but very cozy. Room ovetlooked the docks and lake. Perfect! Bar and restaurant attached on the boardwalk. And nice walk after dinner at the waterfront park beside the Inn. So happy with this find.
Sven, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The Blue Heron is in dire need of remodeling and overall upkeep and maintenance if the property. Got the impression that is underway, but very over priced for the rooms in need of an update. Front desk gal on Friday afternoon was distracted by a personal call on her cell phone.
Kay, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Checking in was awful as they tried to sell us a more expensive room with all kinds of excuses. Fine if you want to upgrade us for free, but don’t start with all the nonsense. The rooms are in need of an update. Would not stay here again.
Roy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Yummy food

Food in the restaurant is very good! Rooms are old, but clean. Tiny shower stall.
Lynn, 1-night trip
