Room was clean. Most of the staff was nice. Pool area was very loud late at night. Boat lift fees were very high and even an additional $25.00 would have been charged to walk on the dock even if I paid for a boat lift rental.

Nice cold room, modern updates, however a bit of rust in the bathroom. Also a lot of noise when trying to fall asleep a little early 9ish, but it wasnt all night. Staff was kind, when asking for a preferred first floor, she was accommodating. Oh, and the blues in decoration were nice.
