8/10 Good
"Room 217 had missing toilet seat missing so seat kept moving. Floor tiles were not grouted so they slipped and some were a trip hazard. Air conditioner was very noisy. Bed was one of best we have had at a hotel stay. Breakfast was very good. Omelet and sausage very tasty. If minor issues corrected this will be a very nice hotel and would recommend."

"Very hot outside but the place was cool. Would have preferred covered parking. Host was very cordial and made sure we had everything. Lake access is limited but a short drive will put you on the water. We could see the lake. Nice neighbors we met and we elected to eat in town. Decent restaurants close by."

Pet-Friendly Lake View Retreat: Kayaks & Fire Pit

Pet-Friendly Lake View Retreat: Kayaks & Fire Pit

10/10 Excellent
"We loved this place. I took my daughter and 2 grandsons for a last outing before school and it didn't disappoint. The home was so clean and roomy. Nestled under several oak and black walnut trees (the 22-month old boy thought the walnuts were balls) makes it nice to sit outside without the sun bearing down on you. Easy entry and exit out of the property with a jet ski being pulled. A boat would work just fine. Sara is very prompt with communication, even when you get a little lost getting there (a bridge was unknowingly out on our original route). I most certainly would recommend this property for a quiet, comfortable stay by and awesome lake."
