The property is under construction. They should actually close and not take our money for the inconvenience of not having full amenities. I would not recommend this to anybody until they finish their remodeling and construction.

We loved everything about this hotel, except that you cannot pull up in front of the hotel to unload your car. They’re remodeling the lobby and it was a huge hassle, especially when it was pouring down rain.

Even though it was under construction they made sure it was easy to get around and areas were accessible. We were there a whole week and everyone was so nice. They communicated with us about the construction and events they were holding so we wouldn’t miss anything. We will definitely be back!

It's a lovely place on the lake. Right now it is under renovation and the lobby is closed. You have to enter at a narrow door on the side of the hotel. A bit inconvenient, but not a great obstacle. They posted the work should be done by November.
