9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,006 reviews)
We came here for a Bucks game and loved being able just to walk to the game. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance as well. The common areas were unique and comfortable for playing board games, and the room decor was something special as well.

A beach that is also a lake is one unique find for one who is used to warm beaches in south Texas. Here it was too cold to even walk the shore barefoot. It looks so similar to what I'm used to, yet so different, surrounded by green life and deer! I hope to have more opportunities to travel and capture these sights. #Adventure
