Excellent location! It is convenient but we can also enjoy the tranquil of long lake which is just a few steps from our hotel. We did kayaking and paddle board there, the staff are very friendly and helped out whatever we need. Room is clean and spacious. The bed is comfortable for me. Simple and good enough breakfast. I would recommend this stay.

The location is off the hiway yet it is quiet. Free breakfast but limited selections and the dining room is too small and crowded. Checking-in was at 3 pm , we were there at 3:20 after a long day of driving, all we wanted was to have room to rest before heading out again to do some activities. Well we were told, room will be ready at 4 and they took our phone number so they can call us when the room was ready. We went to the store and came back to the hotel at 4:10 after waiting for the said phone call. There were other people in the lobby waiting for the room. When I noticed that the group who came after us at 3:30 was given a room, I speak up and asked if our room was also ready as I am not getting a call from them (it’s now 4:20pm). So they checked and said they finally have a room for us. The hallway infront of the elevator was very dirty and stained that is needing attention. The open hallway is full of cobwebs and spiders. The room was adequate for what we need for the night. It is also nice as the property is on the lake with nice sunrise view.

Perfect for a family vacation. Being on the lake was wonderful and complimentary kayak and life jacket rental. The breakfast is simple and good to start the day (muffins,crossiants, boiled eggs, waffle machine and mixed fruits). The beds are very soft. Coffee machine in the room. Can request for level 1, the balcony walks out to the garden and lake. Parking is very convenient ($10 if you book through 3rd party).
