"It was fabulous we have to go again and stay on the lake. I have to say though we ordered room service. The fish and chip was all soggy so it was not great. My baked chicken was not cooked well enough and I was afraid to eat it. But we had breakfast in the dining area and it was quite good."

"The staff was really nice. The hotel was clean. The elevator was a little old and the kids were a little scared of it because it made creaking noises. The breakfast was included with the stay and they had a lot of food options. The gas station in front of the property had so many different snacks from around the world. "
