Check your beds thoroughly before you settle in.
Pros:

Close to where is was fishing, coffee, and places to eat.

Cons:

Had cockroach in the shower and found a bed bug crawling on me. Upon further search found several other dead bugs under the mattress pad. Mattress was all stained and disgusting.

Good food but warmers should be on low rather than on warm setting to provide a warmer meal. Otherwise, plenty of great choices in a clean nice and clean environment KUDOS

Cons:

all good

I was satisfied with our stay.
Pros:

We did not eat the breakfast so I can't answer this question. The location was great. It was close to the wedding venue that we were attending so we are happy about that.

Cons:

The air conditioner could have controlled the humidity in a better way.

Our stay here was so much nicer than the one we just had at the Super 8 in Storm Lake
Pros:

Bed was very comfortable - bathroom was great - ADA toilet and walk in shower.
Staff was very friendly and we enjoyed the outdoor firepit seating for an evening gathering.
Loved its close proximity to Little Swan Lake Winery.

Cons:

Door didn't close automatically so we accidently left it opened while we were gone - but no harm none.
