Instead of offering ear plugs in all the rooms they need to invest in new windows and many upgrades. Lots of cobwebs and spiders in corners and on ceiling. Pictures are very deceiving, there is no dinning area, and we were the only car in parking lot and at this hotel , which was weird.

i initially was in a room (studio) at the back of the property, it felt very isolated and there was no view. I called and requested I be moved to a 2nd floor room (which is where I have always stayed for 30 years) This was approved and completed by a very helpful person.

Enjoyed our stay. The room was very clean and comfortable. The view was very good although the bay was partially blocked by trees. Will probably request 2nd floor room next time. Enjoyed the fire place out front until it ran out of propane.

The hot water heater is a little loud and clanking. Check in was a little confusing probably because we did it last minute kind of spontaneous. But everything else was wonderful.

Clean, updated motel. Beds were comfortable. It’s my first time staying at motel with no staff. That said, you need to be aware of what you need for your room if staying more than one night - like extra towels, extra coffee,etc so that cleaning staff can provide while they are on premise. I would stay here again knowing how it works.

We liked our room. It was very clean and attractive. We did have to ask for more coffee and wish the waste baskets had been emptied. The tv was very confusing to use. Simple directions would have been helpful.

It was a quaint little cottage with the studio on the back side of it. It had its own entrance and way to get to the big porch that overlooked the lake. No complaints. I gave a 4 for staff because I never saw anyone not that they didnt do something. They answered all my questions very quickly and politely.
