Such an excellent hotel. We walked in and my husband said, “this hotel is dog friendly?!” He couldn’t believe such a clean hotel was dog friendly. Great location with a walking trail out back around the lake and a yummy burger restaurant next door. 10/10 would stay again.

We had a wonderful stay. The room and the hotel itself was very nice, clean and staff was very pleasant. Our 9 year old thought it was the best hotel ever! We will be back for another visit.
