Older facility but nice overall

The facility is an older building but kept up well. The beds were very comfortable, and the balcony overlooking the lake gave a beautiful view. The carpet seemed like it needed a good cleaning, though. Otherwise, breakfast was good, the grounds were beautiful, and the staff were kind and helpful.
