The property has been completely upgraded with the room very tidy and clean. The staff/owners are very nice and accommodating. Location (lakeside)was less than we expected (I should have done a better job mapping/vetting it)since it's not very close to the lake.

We chose Hamilton Lakeside mainly because it was pet friendly. We contacted the motel to confirm, and they were great. Our furry family member was very happy (& we were too). The rooms were very comfortable, clean, neat and tidy, and if there had been pets there before ours, we could not see any evidence of previous pets, i.e. no unwelcome smells etc.
