Super friendly staff! Super easy to find it right off of the highway. No highway noise so that was a lovely surprise. Priced the cheapest in town. Had everything in the room you would need. The staff had great recommendations for places to get food. Will definitely be back.

Very dated, rustic accomodation. Good use a reno. Bed linens were clean but spreads were old and linty. The vintage entry door is cool except for a hole (maybe kicked in by a previous guest. Carpeted area newer and clean. Broken door on the microwave. Coffee, well supplied at request. Staff were all friendly and accomodating. The porch looked out over the lake and was beautiful. Our dogs were welcome. The whole outdoor property is beautiful and well cared for. All in all, we will return again for the welcoming and accommodating staff and affordable stay.
