We truly enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and spacious, enjoyed the separate living and kitchen area from the bedroom. The balcony overlooking the beach and water was a great place to enjoy coffee in the morning and the last light of day at night. Our stay was just after Labor Day, so it was quiet and peaceful. The beds were comfortable and we left the sliding door open at night to hear the waves and enjoy the cooler evenings. I’ve read other comments about the age of the hotel and the hallways being a little rough and out of date, but those concrete walls kept out any road noise and traffic sounds. Did not even know if there were people in the rooms next to us, it was that quiet. Would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful condo on the beach.

This is the third winter we have stayed here. We love having extra space and a full kitchen to cook if we want to. Close to restaurants and downtown. Beautiful home away from home.

We had a great experience at this resort! The space was just what we needed. Having a kitchen was a big plus. Being on the lake was lovely.
