For one night it wasn’t bad. But the lack of cleanliness was adding up. The room door barely fit the area and honestly finding cigarette type ash on the bedspread was the finally nail. Wanted to like this place because there are stunning views of the lake but overall needs just a bit more upkeep.

We stayed for one night. When we arrived the restaurant was just jumping with excitement with families and others singing karaoke. It was a nice welcome. We checked out the pool. It was a little cold but the kids had a quick dip and were happy. The staff was amazing. Such great customer service. From the staff that checked us in, the gentleman that cooked breakfast and the lady that cleaned the rooms. The maintenance man helped us with a little issue faster than my toddler could asking him a million questions which is lightning speed. Checkout was also great! 10/10 would definitely stay here again. Rooms were comfortable, quiet, and clean! Great water pressure for the kids baths and showers.
