We stayed here while we were going biking and discovered they had a wonderful little waterpark. We had no kids with us, but we really did enjoy the hot tub which went inside and outside. Our room was clean and newly updated. They had a free continental breakfast which we did not expect so that was kind of fun. The people at the desk were very helpful and knowledgeable of getting us to our bike trail and what was going on in town. Very friendly.

This hotel was a nice place to stay. Continental breakfast was very limited, just waffles, hard boiled eggs, cereal and muffins. The pool/waterpark is over rated. I would only recommend if you have small children, lame for older kids. Had plenty of arcade games.

Great little getaway for families!

We go here a few times a year, great for a quick get-away for the kids and waterpark is perfect for little kids, also love the indoor-outdoor hot tub. My only complaint is the breakfast: would like to see a hot egg and protein option to round it out and less use of styrofoam.

Nice looking hotel with great pools

Hotel is a nice log cabin rustic look. Pools & water slides are fun. Arcade sucks, doesn't take quarters, have to buy a card or tokens. Breakfast is horrible! Front desk was nice & efficient, pool staff was great. Room was not very clean & the nice patio was dirty & dead bugs everywhere.
