The view of the lake was peaceful. Room was clean and modern
It’s adorable. Staff is great. Check in and check out was so simple. Loved every thing about the hotel!
Very nice lakeside view! Very clean & quiet. Bed was comfortable. Temperature control (AC unit was inoperable/broken).
Beautiful lake view.
Very nice smaller motel. So relaxing being right on the lake’s edge! Beautiful view!!
Thought the property sits on the lakefront, most of the rooms have a view of the outdoor restaurant or the roof over the restaurant Instead of the lake. The onsite restaurant is only open from Memorial Day thru Labor…

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.

Nothing to do with the booking above. The same market, priced the same way, for if this one is not it.
