We visited on a chilly weekend in May and Great Pines provided a cozy space to relax. Our Lake View Room had a perfect view of Fourth Lake and the bed was very comfortable. The common area with a large fireplace was inviting and we spent time on the comfy couches reading and visiting with other guests. Breakfast was average. We didn't meet any staff. Definitely recommend

One night stay. The room was very clean and updated and my husband really liked the outlets next to the bed as well as the echo dot in the room. The self service option was easy to navigate and the bartender at the Lean Two was very fun and personable. I highly recommend his property !!
