Hi, been coming here for over 31 years stayed our honeymoon night. Back several years to celebrate many occasions.. I would like to see the balconies being cleaned or screen them in. So there isn’t so many insects around. Takes the enjoyment out for the beautiful view. Think it needs a little facelift, but will continue to visit as it holds many beautiful memories.

It is an older building but seems to have been kept well situated by the lake as the name implies. The street is busy. The room is a bit small especially the bathroom. Nice thick towels. The mattress was ok. I found the pillows on the firm side. We had to climb six steps to our room which was not a big deal for us. For a one night stay, it was ok.

This facility did not have an elevator and it has a lot of stairs. I would not recommend for people with mobility issues. The pool was located at the end of the hotel and you had to walk through the parking lot to get to it. The tennis courts did not have a net and were not well kept. The clerk at check in was not very friendly. The check out clerk (the owner) was very friendly. The food was very good. The restaurant staff were very friendly and knowledgeable.

Side entrance was locked day or night. Your room Key would not open the door . I understand the safety portion, I do. I had to run to our car at 10 pm for a forgotten item and had to go back through the main entrance., I my pj’s. We parked on the side of the building thinking we could go in and out via the side entrance and were mistaken. The property was clean and tidy, staff that we did interact with were friendly.

Very friendly and welcoming checkin. Thankyou Lynn! Spacious and comfortable room. Unfortunately there was a large family or group of friends in rooms near us, which meant there it was quite noisy outside our room or in the hallway until 10-11pm, but that’s not the hotel’s fault.
