I think the property was sufficient for what we needed for one night. Walls were really thin, could hear the whole conversation at 4:00 AM in the next room. Patio door was really had to open. All was clean though. Check in was a quick phone call.

We arrived and to our surprise we were upgraded to a cabin instead of a hotel room. Nice by the lake. Cabin was clean and had dishes and cookware to use.

There was no one there to check in with. No staff. Apparently they only work until a certain time of day and if you don't check in by then you dont get a room.

I will definitely go back

I really enjoyed being on the lake with my puppies. I didn’t see a way to recycle but I also didn’t ask. It was comfortable and clean. I liked it a lot.
