I always enjoy fishing off the dock. It’s the main reason I stay there. It’s nice not having a large group of people around when I’m trying to fish. Of course the rooms are always nice and feel inviting. Staff has always been nice and helpful.

We tried to check in at 5:00pm and the lobby door was locked and there was no one there. There were only 2 cars in the parking lot. The property seemed oddly deserted. We were forced to find other accomodations after a 7 hour drive. It was a horrible experience.
