Location and view were excellent. Staff were friendly! Building is in need of updating in guest rooms. Breakfast included sweet rolls and instant oatmeal with coffee. Maybe we missed the hot food but if not, would list as continental if no hot cooked items offered.

The atmosphere at this lodge was peaceful and restful. We spent a lot of time in the rocking chairs on the patio looking out at the lake. The breakfast was adequate, with gluten free options that were a welcome surprise. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Some of the details in the room could be updated, specifically the balcony/bathroom door handles and the bathroom flooring that was cracked and moved when you stepped on the tiles.

It is quaint, needs some upgrades and small repairs. Over all, a super cute place on the lake. Fireworks were great right from our balcony. (July 4th) Breakfast was great.

The staff at this hotel has exceeded my expectations, and is equal to any 4 or 5-star hotel I have stayed in. The grounds are beautiful and quiet, with nice views of the Lake or the mountains. All units have a back door and porch. Cons - signs of aging, no work desk, weak breakfasts, etc. The cons are is all out balanced by the Staff experience.

Tired

This place is old and tired. The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything in the room next to you. The exterior needs a good cleaning too.

It might have been a great place at some point

I don’t know why this place has such great reviews. The front desk was friendly. They seem understaffed. When I checked in, I realized my toilet wouldn’t flush. My options were use a plunger throughout the duration of my stay, or change rooms. I changed rooms & the new bathroom had hair all over the floor & the toilet bowl was stained. Breakfast was unappetizing. Basically, food out of a vending machine.

QUIET and comfortable - great staff!!

Great staff! Quiet, given the price, did not expect a great night, but was very happy with the price, the room, the staff, and the stay. Would stay there again if I'm back in the area.
