When choosing a pet friendly hotel you usually have trade some comfort. Not here! It was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the grounds were beautiful. We enjoyed the pool, lake, and nearby resturaunts and hiking. We will definitely be back!

Great little place

Very clean, cute mid-century modern vibe. Not a fan of the mattress, though.

Everything was great overall, but the water from the toilet and faucet had a slight yellow tint. The shower water was fine. At first, I thought it was just the lighting, but it wasn’t.

Super cute and clean!

Super cute, newly renovated room with retro appeal! Pool and pool area were clean and inviting. Pool towels provided, which was nice. Would have given all 5 stars except we were in the end room #12 which shares a wall with the laundry room and was not too happy to be woken up at 6:30 am on Saturday morning by laundry machine noises.

The rooms were freshly renovated with cute touches and extras such as makeup remover wipes. The shampoo and lotion smell fantastic. Unfortunately my husband and I did not like the mattress and pillows. We both had uncomfortable sleep and back / neck pain from them. My kids seems to like them though.

Cute and cozy room. Smaller on the size, but the design was beautiful! And the pool was very clean. The bathroom door didn’t shut without being pushed, and one of the beds frames was slightly cracked, but other than that, no complaints. The food choices were pretty good, and the Blue moon ice cream shop had so many options! Everything closes pretty early during the week, so check times to plan your day out!

The property was clean and updated. The staff was great. The WifFi did not work, and cable was was sketchy at best. Not great if you wanted to watch TV at night or check messages if you to have a working vacation.

The renovated Sun n Sand is so much better than it used to be! Great job by the new owners. They’re still doing construction so that’s a bit intrusive to your stay but not a big deal. We also didn’t have extra toilet paper when we arrived but they fixed it although without the owners on site it takes a bit of time to get service. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

The renovations and updates at the property were very well thought out. We were super comfortable here. We didn't realize until we arrived how centrally located it was for everything we wanted to do and see as we had never been to this area before. We plan to visit the area again and would stay here for certain.
