The hotel staff was pleasant and helpful, but the lack of basic amenities like privacy curtains and power affected our experience. The location was convenient with on-site beach access, but parking and highway access were challenging. Dining was decent but could use more variety. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.

Our room was ready promptly by 4 pm as expected, but we were disappointed to be assigned a broom closet. The lake view was nice, although we couldn't access it due to a power outage.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were very spacious, especially with my three younger children, and the view overlooking the beach and bay was simply amazing. The comfort and cleanliness were top-notch. The service was exceptional, as they even gave us a room key to test it with our 2-year-old and offered us a discount for staying multiple nights. The location on the beach was fantastic, though it could have been a bit cleaner due to other guests. The dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited options, but the organic pulled pork was a highlight. Overall, great value for money and a fantastic location.

I had a great time staying at this hotel. It was right on the beach, and the rooms had a sleeper sofa in it along with king and queen beds and a balcony on the first floor. The room layout was perfect for us, but it was a bit dusty.

The location was superb, with beautiful scenery, although you may need to drive to reach restaurants. However, the temperature was a bit too warm and needed adjustment. Also, there was some noise from the hallway that could be bothersome.

Unfortunately, the dining experience wasn't the greatest. The breakfast options were limited to waffles, cold cereal, and hard boiled eggs, which felt underwhelming considering the price of my room.
