Nice stay, great value, some minor issues.
Pros:

Great location, very roomy, clean, serviceable room. Great value for the location. For the most part a friendly staff.

Cons:

In general a very nice stay. A number of items to consider, though. 1) Strangely, the lighting in the room was relatively poor. During the day, with the curtains open, not too bad. After dark with every light turned on, kinda dim. 2) They provided 4 full-body pillows on the king bed. For a side/stomach sleeper like me, it was impossible to sleep with. I left them on the floor. Just before our second night, I asked the front office if they had any normal pillows. The answer was no, that's all they had. Darn! Then, about 10 minutes later, a knock on our door from a fellow delivering 4 very nice normal pillows! Kudos to them for that, not sure why the initial denial. 3) We stayed for 2 nights. Upon returning for the second evening, it was apparent that we had not gotten any maid service -- the bed was not made, no fresh towels. When I mentioned it the next morning at checkout, the front desk said that they only provide fresh towels if they are requested. I asked how was I supposed to know that I needed to request them? The answer: "Yeah, I know what you mean." So that was an issue.

Overall though, a very good value, clean rooms, and a pleasant stay.

Pros:

The Staff is wonderful! Super friendly and helpful. The location can't be beat. A short walk will either get you to the beach in one direction or restaurants in the other. We love it because the are so pet friendly.

Cons:

Just out dated, but that was ok. Nothing was broken or stained.

Uncomfortable bed and pillows for poor sleep quality.,
Pros:

Shower was a good size and nice to have glass doors instead of a curtain.

Cons:

Bed was way too soft like a marshmallow and not in a good way. Sore backs for both of us the next day. Pillow was too thick. Dark interior room. We turned up the heat to 80 and still slept with a neck gator.

Nice facilities but rooms dated
Pros:

Location is great close to shops. They have a nice fire pit and hot tub. Beds were comfortable.

Cons:

The walls are thin so we could actually make out the neighbor’s conversations and what tv show they were watching.
The lodge is set up like a motel with the 2 floors of outdoor walk ways.
No tea available in the room; only coffee.
The interior and exterior are a little dated and the shower needed some maintenance.

It's a solid place to stay and we would do so again if can get for a similar rate
Pros:

Hot tub and pool were fab, we'll kept. Never crowded although we were there sun- Thurs shoulder of winter season. Loved the fireplace and fire pit. The freshly ground and made coffee by the cup; the well stocked tea and honey.

Cons:

The unit was generally fine, but needed a few maintenance things done- leakage at shower connection, the slider doors handles need to be addressed. The unit upstairs several doors were creaking everytime used and it was happening 11pm to middle of the night. They must have fallen asleep with tv on or were on the phone all night long...maybe a way to insulate better between floors. I didn't find out about the coffee/tea available till second day, need to tell people on check in. Same for how to empty trash - the cans in the room very small.
