Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was not heat in our room. It was in the 40s outside and the 50s in our room. When I asked, the hotel staff told me "they've turned off the heat for the season". They gave me a space heater that did not heat the room more than 2 degrees. We reserved for 2 nights, but left after one. I tried to communicate with Orbitz about this, see if a partial refund was possible. I got NO WHERE with them. Orbitz sucks.

Comfortable getaway
The front desk was totally accommodating! We had top floor first night and since we are not stair people, we were relocated downstairs. Shower was powerful. Breakfast was cereals, coffee, pop tarts, toast, juice, hard boiled eggs, oat meals, Keurig in lobby for hot chocolate, coffee and teas with honey. Right across the street from Sven and Oles! It was a pleasant birthday getaway with my spouse!

There was no one physically on the property for staff. Our door did not close properly. The Tv was a fire ring. Read the reviews after we checked in. Should have read before booking. We left. Did not stay the night.

Nice, clean, simple hotel
Nice simple hotel. Beautiful views of the lake. Lots of snacks offered for guests. It's an older hotel, but its clean and comfortable. The staff is very nice and friendly. It's a walkable community. We went for a class at the North House Folk School. I would stay here again.
