"If I could give this location a 4.5 I would. I generally reserve 5's for luxury or "above and beyond" locations. This location is exactly what it appears to be, a "cozy" motel outside of town that appears to be being rehabbed. It was in reasonably good, clean condition and well appointed. I say reasonably, because there were definite signs of age, the bathroom door didn't pull tightly closed, and there were some cobwebs here and there, but nothing you might not expect from an older, countryside...

Great, very accomodating. Fridge, microwave, plenty of space to put luggage and belongings. Nice warm cookies and good coffee every afternoon. Fresh fruit, pretzels, trail mix available all day. Quiet atmosphere.

Was a very comfortable room! The bed was very comfortable and clean. Clean and updated room. Was surprised when I got into the room and noticed a jacuzzi tub! Was not expecting it.

We left a valuable item in our room accidentally and the staff called to notify us and mailed it to our home. They went above and beyond. The room was nice, bed comfortable and quieter than we expected.

My room was right on the water with a large belcony and an electric fire place. Pool and hot tub open year round. Bar and restuarant on site. Great place.

This resort converted the old spa to new rooms. For the price of a normal motel, the rooms are twice as large, have sliding glass door to a deck overlooking the lake, gas fireplace. Watch out for the bathtub, they are slippery. Also, my room was so new it totally lacked any artwork to breakup the walls.
The resort buffet breakfast is far better than any normal motel and comes with the room. The dining room has expansive windows overlooking the lake. The are older ladies there to make sure...
