Although the hotel is not fancy, the rooms are prepared nicely with coffee pots, microwaves, and refrigerators. They have AC. The beach area is rather disappointing; it's very minimal and can quickly be overcrowded. I wonder if some landscaping might provide more access to the lake.

False advertising. I paid $168/night and there was no pool and no beach. I was willing to pay the price because the photos and description called it a “Lodge”. This place was a roadside motel. We were next to the road so loud we couldn’t sleep. Although we paid for 2 nights we left in 18 hours. It showed a dining room that was not there. The beach access was sand about 3ft wide in the middle of reeds. Couldn’t even swim. I want a refund or at least a credit from expedia

Disliked: Amenities
The property is dated and in need of some maintenance, website shows a pool and it looks like it hasn’t been operational for some years. Staffing hours are incorrect and too many inconsistent answers, no one can give you a straight answer other than the person doing the housekeeping or the guy working the boat rental who is working very hard. We won’t be returning to this place.

Grounds were not kept. Not sure if it’s under new ownership because we went about 12 years ago and it was amazing. Shower is very very slippery and we were missing the shower curtain. Pool was empty and looked terrible! In order to use the bbq or fire pit you have to pay for it! Not worth the 249 a night that we paid.

The on site manager was very rude and disrespectful. We were hoping to enjoy a family weekend including our daughter and grandchildren. The rooms in general were not clean and the furnishings were broken and dirty, as well. The swimming pool was empty and unusable. We reserved a boat for usage on the lake but due to the high winds the manager deemed it unsafe and refused to refund our $699.07 rental fee. She offered to allow us usage of a gazebo and gas bbq and a “gift certificate” instead. When we refused her offer she became enraged and began insulting us. Needless to say we will never return to or refer anyone to this property. Please beware!
