The views were great but the outside facilities by the lake needed to be maintained. The rooms were clean and the hot tub in the room was very nice. The pool and patio area seemed nice. Would definitely recommend staying here if you wanted something quiet and quaint outside of the city.

A delightful overnight stay, from the genuinely warm welcome to the clean, spacious room featuring a jetted tub. The only thing I missed (as an older person) was a hand railing to help ease into and out of the pool! Breakfast in the the hotel restaurant is a must for the cheerful service and the best Eggs Benny ever (note: not open Mon & Tues.)
