We liked this Inn very much because it is very dog friendly, the only suggestion I have to update the breakfast room. The restaurant especially outside seating and the bar area is very nice also it is very convenient to rent a boat. There are many parks around however you ned to drive to them.Do not forget to the town itself because it has restaurants and a great ice cream place.

Property is fine and the view from our room was also great. Only problem we had was the maid service, which was basically non-existent. Somebody came the first day and emptied the trash, cleaned the coffee pot and refilled our coffee supplies. We were there for 4 days and had to go to the front desk every day after the 1st to get new towels, coffee supplies and TP. Our bed was never made up once.

Material condition of the room we were in was very poor. Wall paper was buckling, shower had holes in the wall. Paint was very poor. The bed was extremely to soft and appeared worn out. The T-Bone restaurant was very good.

Great location on the lake, great views. Clean. Friendly. Love the boardwalk bar & grill - good food, live music on weekends. Down to earth atmosphere and friendly people. And "dog friendly". Can rent a pontoon boat at the front desk.We will be back!
