Clean room and great proximity to town, but we werent crazy about the noise factors. The road when youre sitting outside for the lake view is very loud and busy. The view was nice however, with the power lines (to no fault of the inn) it was a bit obstructed. Some of the online pictures were deceiving in how close you are to the water. The patio also has no privacy. Its a large shared patio with other people. Meaning you are right on top of the other rooms. Perhaps, and at minimum, a divider or something would be nice as to not have to look at strangers. We also had some survey guys working on the yard 10 feet away while were trying to enjoy some quiet time on a late Friday afternoon. They werent rude, but were just talking and had equipment out. Just not an enjoyable experience when you combine all these factors in. My wife and I couldnt hold a conversation between all this noise so we had to sit inside on a beautiful fall day. The next morning, before 8am people were outside talking and the cleaning people were also out banging around. Just not what I expected for $300+ dollars a night.

Fun and relaxing so much nicer than a traditional hotel and the friendly people.

Quaint inn/motel. Staff friendly and cat friendlier. The area is beautiful and the inn is close to everything. Maybe the only disappointment was the breakfast (Costco muffins) and the fact that the kayaks and paddle boards are for hourly rental rather than free to use (given the price point). But we had a very pleasant stay.
