Pros:

Good location. very pretty there

Cons:

We had what we thought was a lake view room but was a lakeside room. There was no view as the trees were in the way. No bar or dining room so set your expectations

Very relaxing serene quiet vaycay with beautiful views and walk friendly suitable for older people t
Pros:

The breakfast was good but I was not sure if it was included so I asked the chef and he said it was free. The front desk said it was not free to pay when you walked in. There were enough towels for the weekend stay !The windows opened for letting in fresh lake view air. Staff was friendly. Nice porches overlooking the lake. The Lambuth is the highest point on the lake so the walk from there around the lake was incredible. The little shops were fun but the pool is really special out on the lake.

Cons:

The toilet in room was slow to flush . It took 2-3 times to flush properly. The checkout was slow . The bathroom was so small the door opened inside covering up half of the sink front. So you had to move to the side to use the sink. Carpets throughout needed to be gone. Old and worn out.

Pros:

We stayed at Lambuth Inn for a conference and the place met more than my expectations. The building is a bit dated but the rooms and facilities were updated and the bed was comfortable. Food was great! The surroundings were very nice and we enjoyed our walks to the lake and around the area. We were there July 3-5 and there were fireworks on July 3 and it was spectacular!

Pros:

scenery

Cons:

my husband was there for a conference, i tagged along. the food in my husbands meal plan was average, nothing special. I ventured out for food.
also it's a methodist Christian retreat center, I'm not into the religion aspects at every turn.

We won’t return to this place
Pros:

The lake was pretty

Cons:

We had no idea that this is a religious retreat. The place was packed with kids at some camp. Our room was not a nice hotel room but more like a dorm room. We got no housekeeping while we were there, why? We paid $250 a night for a camp room like a little kid? The rooms are super small, and very dated. The lobby smells like an old persons home or a nursing home. We had a view of the back of the hotel. Not a lake view….i guess those were reserved for campers? No food at the hotel either.
