This time we had dinner elsewhere but their restaurant is great, noticed on previous visits. We'll have breakfast in the Beauclaire again tomorrow and I'm sure it will be as good as ever. As two seniors we appreciate that we were given a room with few steps to navigate.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Lakeside Inn is so historic built in 1883 and one of the historic hotels in the US. Quaint with a lot of charm. Right on the Lake with gorgeous views and walking distance of the town with lovely shops and eateries. Claire’s Creperie was fabulous in the town for breakfast. We had a double bed suite but the room configuration was odd with the sofa bed in a separate room only accessible via the bathroom, meaning the bathroom had two doors to it. If you are looking for a relaxing place outside of the madness of Orlando would recommend for a couple of nights.

The property was lovely. The grounds were beautiful to walk and the pool had a Great Lake view. The Inn is class old Florida and felt like stepping back in time. Unfortunately the room was very very old and dated. Felt cheap and rundown. The ice machine was broken and the bed was very uncomfortable. The property could use a good update and cleaning. Parking was very limited to a small area that wasn’t covered or shaded in most areas. Staff was lovely and the atmosphere was great. Walkable to the whole town. Very convenient.
