The property was clean, safe, and quiet, but both times we stayed there, the pool was under maintenance, and we didn't receive a discount for having a fishing charter

Great family get away!

We absolutely loved this hotel. Was close to all restaurants, shopping and a quick walk to the lake. Was clean food in the attached restaurant was great, customer service was wonderful. If I had to complain my only issue would be the rooms by the road are loud. So make sure to ask for a water view. We can’t wait to come back!
