Unique hotel for history lovers. Great location and walkable to many dining and shopping options. Although clean, wear and tear is visible with rust on fixtures. Bedding is not the comfiest and walls are thin. Make sure you pay attention to room selection. My room was tiny and mostly bed.

Great time at Lakeside

Hotel had a great historic feel. It is located right in town which made walking to restaurants and bars easy. We had an amazing view of the lake. The room was smaller than we thought it was going to be, and the drinks on site are way overpriced. Luckily it's a quick walk to town to find better food/drinks and there are so many things to do you won't be spending much time in your room.

Disliked: Amenities
While the grounds are pleasant and exterior of buildings look nice pay attention to the room. We stayed at the Gable Little dark inside no elevator as only 2 story. Room could be cleaner at baseboard by beds crumbs and dirt. The hot water tap in morning was milky white and the sink. Tv remote control doesn’t work. Had to use on off button on tv. Finally no maid service had to request someone come empty garbage bins and bring clean towels. I’m still waiting to hear back from the property. Thankfully we only stayed 2 nights. Very disappointed

Main meal was not good. Appetizer was wrong. Waited forever for the entree. Had prime rib and eggs. Prime rib was fatty. No bread available for eggs. Waiter was not attentive as should have been. Bathtub needed non-slip material. Difficult to adjust shower. Water pressure appears low. Building built in 1883 so there is a lot to be desired. Trip was pleasant.
