Very nice room. Clean, modern with a comfortable bed. Had a room facing the lake with a good view. Enjoyed complimentary "S'mores" in the evening. Had a very young bartender that didn't know how to mix drinks. I was charged almost $25 just for 2 mixed drinks. Other than that, we really liked the place and enjoyed our stay.
