I had a mixed experience at this motel. While the rooms were clean and comfortable, I found the lack of basic amenities like cutlery and coffee supplies quite frustrating. The location was decent, as it was close to town, but not ideal for families. Overall, it felt overpriced for what was offered, especially during the busy Easter weekend.

My stay was overall pleasant with comfortable and clean rooms, and a great location near the lake. The service was friendly but could use some improvement in terms of attention to detail. While the dining options were decent, they left some room for enhancement. The price was on the higher side for what was offered, but the amenities provided made it a relatively good value.

The motel provided a decent stay with comfortable and clean accommodations. The room was spacious, but the beds were a bit narrow. Breakfast was a bit pricey, and dining was reasonable but lacking excitement. Overall, it felt safe and well-maintained, though the experience would not be the same without some improvements.

My recent stay at this resort was quite mixed. The location was peaceful and offered beautiful views, which I really enjoyed. However, the rooms were a bit dated and lacked essential amenities like a microwave or sufficient air conditioning. The staff were friendly, and the dining options provided some tasty meals. Overall, while there were some positives, the accommodation itself wasn't ideal.

While my experience had its ups and downs, the resort had some great aspects. The facilities were enjoyable, and I found the dining options satisfying. However, I faced significant issues with the cancellation policy that left a sour taste. It’s a mixed bag, really, with good amenities but a frustrating service experience.
