Will Never Go Back! Worst Anniversary Stay!
Pros:

Beautiful lake and Decor

Cons:

Pushed down trees on the property, the staff was not approachable at all, very rude. The breakfast was awful and the milk was soured. There was rust in the vents and mold on the door of our patio door.

I highly recommend this place and will happily return.
Pros:

Breakfast was great. Great solution of warm and cold items. Coffee was very good. Room was great. Bed was very comfortable and the AC worked well. We were on the bottom so the view was great, but you could walk out the back and see the lake easily.

Cons:

Honestly, there was not anything to dislike. The front lobby staff were outstanding. Very helpful with food hints, and places to hike. They seem to like their jobs a lot. Very rare indeed in my experience!

Beautiful spot by the lake
Pros:

Beautiful location overlooking the lake. Great common room off the lobby with an fireplace that overlooked the lake. We had a room on the other side that had nice mountain views and a.little porch area. BBQ joint next door. Breakfast was adequate, no hot food like eggs/sausage but had pastries, little bagels, fruit, cereals. I don't eat sugar or white carbs but found plain instant oatmeal and cheerios. Staff were all helpful and cheerful. Rooms had a nice little 1 cup drip coffee maker with Several packets of caf and drcaf coffee (preferred that to the instant coffee dispenser in the dining room).

Cons:

In our room there weren't many outlets available for electronics or night lights - they were all behind furniture with a lamp or clock in one of the plugs. I did find a.power strip behind the dresser that had a few free plugs but I jad to hunt for it. My other little peeve was that they generated a lot of plastic waste. Silverware were plastic knife,.fork, spoon, salt and napkin in a plastic wrap,.even if you just needed one piece. All food items wrapped in plastic. All cups in room and dining room individually wrapped in plastic. Disposable plastic cassettes for each serving in the in room coffee makers.
