My wife and I were just passing through but this looked like a good bet and we're SO GLAD we stopped here. Inside it's an ordinary hotel, except the staff are super friendly and personable, it was very clean and moderately comfortable, and the king sized bed was great (some space age foam that feels hard at first but then envelopes you in a cloud of ease). And then there's the outside. The beach is roomy, the furniture is in good shape, there's a small pier to the lake, and they even have two grills. And they even arranged a beautiful sunset for us. This turned the stay from just a stop to a little honeymoon installment (yes, we have modest tastes). We didn't have a balcony room facing the lake, our room was a walkout onto the parking lot, but fortunately right behind the Level 2 EV charger, which I was counting on and did not disappoint. (However, there's only one cable, so if there's more than one EV, you'll have to take turns). Breakfast was limited. That's the worst I can come up with. If we pass this way again, this is where we'll stay,

Great Price, Beautiful Property

From the moment you walk in the hotel smells so fresh and clean. Stephanie at the front desk was so helpful and kind. The room was very clean. The views are amazing! The outdoor space offer so much to do and as well manicured. From the indoor pool, hot tub, a playground for the kids off to the side, a dock, the lake, grass areas with seating, sandy beach, volleyball court, and two fire pits. This hotel is the nicest I have ever stayed at up north, and the price was great! We will definitely be going back!

Pool tried to k!ll us and the beach was gross

We were pretty disappointed as we booked this hotel so our daughters could enjoy the pool/beach. Way too much chlorine in the pool/hot tub...we were all coughing and sputtering and my boyfriend got a bloody nose from it! We decided to try the beach out back and there were large rotting fish that had washed up. It stunk so bad even when we moved down the beach a ways to play volleyball instead. Pretty disappointed that we didn't get to enjoy the pool area OR the beach. When i mentioned it to the front desk they apologized but did not offer a solution. $170/night when we couldn't even use the pool/beach is pretty steep! The hotel was very clean however, and breakfast offered a lot of options.
