It was a great location on the lake. The food was good and prices were reasonable. The room we selected did not have any windows which we were unable to determine from the website at time of reservation. We also did not realize that breakfasts are only served on the weekends.

Room was very clean, staff was amazing, only reason I could not give a 5 star review was due to room location. Directly across from front deck and close to front door, this causes a lot of noise just outside our room. Food in the resteraunt was very good as well.

The room was shared a wall with the hotel bar. There was live music till 10PM, then the crowd got louder as the night went on. The bar closed at 1AM but We could hear loud talking well past 2AM outside our rooms door! If you can sleep through the noise the room was clean, and modern.
