staff was friendly welcoming. While the property is dated, the room was clean and comfortable. Only suggestion would be to improve the breakfast choices, maybe some fruit and a hot item choice would be nice. Otherwise it was a nice quiet visit. I would definitely go back again.

The lodge was so peaceful and well maintained, the staff were all very friendly, and the breakfast was great! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway and will most definitely be returning as we would love nothing more than to witness every season from the huge windows looking out over the lake!
Beautiful tree at the entrance of the lodge.

There were a lot of issues with our recent visit: no extra outlets for phone/USB charging, loose tiles on the bathroom floor, the shower was not working properly and dripped constantly, the toilet leaked and ran constantly, the elevator was broken and free breakfast was nearly all packaged foods or was poorly prepared. One of my worst ever experiences in a hotel.
