Room above us must have had a party all day and night. We complained to the front desk but they did nothing. We got almost no sleep. If you stay here, make sure you get a room on the top floor or you’ll hear pounding nice you all day and night.!!!

The breakfast was amazing! There were so many options: scrambled eggs, sausage links, baked egg/hashbrown cups, breakfast potatoes, waffles, pancakes, multiple cereals, donuts, bagels, hard boiled eggs, great coffee, juices, and much more! The view out toward the lake from the breakfast area is amazing and so beautiful. The hotel itself was very clean and cozy feeling. The beds were incredibly comfortable. We requested a pack and play, extra pillows and blanket and all were brought to us immediately upon request. We love the pool area and the fact that there are two hot tubs! My kids all swam until 10pm when the pool closed for kids, but adults could continue to use the pool/hot tub until midnight. We have stayed here twice now in the last few years and we’ve had a 10/10 experience both times. Highly recommend.
