We waited a while for someone to come check us in. By the time we got to our room, that person was gone. Never to be seen or heard from again. There was no internet, TV didn't work and neither did the remote control. I immediately went back to the office and left a message on the desk, stating so. No one answered the 2 phone numbers that was posted on the office door to call if we needed anything. I tried calling for 2hrs. No way to leave a message and no answer. We left to go to our concert and returned back to the Inn around 11:30pm. The main door was left open and still no one was around. Luckily, we didn't forget or lose our key, because we wouldn't be able to get into our room. It was my daughter and myself in our room. It felt very unsafe, knowing anyone could walk in the front door. There was no phone in our room as well. We went to bed and when we got up and was ready to check out, there still was no one in the office. I left the keys and we left. I will never stay there again. We did not feel safe.

Find another hotel!
Room was clean but tiny and no chair to even sit on in. My biggest complaint is there was NO hot water for our showers, Wi-Fi did not reach our room and tv/cable was not working . Staff at check in was usually not there. I would not stay at this hotel again.

Could do better!
Ariived at 3:00 to check in and waited a half hour for someone to come to the check in desk along with 3 other couples. Room very sparsely stocked, not a Kleenex to be found and towels of poor quality.

This property has gone downhill and needs some TLC by someone who cares as it has such great potential to be a nice historical property with a few upgrades.

The most horrible place I think I’ve ever walked into. You could barely move in the room. The bathroom smelled like urine. The room smelled like smoke. I can’t even believe that this is listed as a recommended place to stay. The only good thing was the view of the lake. I must say the couple that was running the whole place were very nice and helpful when I requested a refund and moved to another place that really wasn’t that much better but certainly better than here.

Will never stay here again!
Exterior of building was disgusting and alarming. We had it set in our minds we would not be staying here. Check in was supposed to be 3 there was nobody at the desk and a line of people started to form. We had an event to get to and wanted to refresh in the room quick and head back out. Finally someone appeared at 3:20 and when she looked for my booking she said I had canceled. I did cancel and rebooked and I had my booking pulled up on hotels app to show her, she said she would give us a room, well thank goodness because I had a live booking for proof. She said the room wasn’t ready (it was supposed to be by 3) So we weren’t able to use the room and we did not feel safe leaving our belongings. We came back at 11pm and beds were changed but bathroom was not clean, seems there is ongoing repairs and the sawdust was still there around the toilet and bathroom floors and doors were covered in it. I will never come here again!

I can tell you one thing that my room was not anywhere close to being what was advertised. Our door would not close or lock. The bathroom door did not close. Check in was at 3. We were told to come at 4 because our room was not ready. Our bed had plastic sheets. Apparently people who stay at this place pee the bed quite often. Our bed was broken. I could have grabbed a card board box from Home Depot up the road and it would have been more comfortable than that bed

The inn was not very clean. The sheets looked stained and were rough. There was a comforter on it that seemed like it was from an old college dorm. The bathroom had what looked like blood splatter on the walls. Would not stay here again.

though recently updated it is still an older hotel there was no hot water (just tepid) and the room was damp along with bedding despite the ac being on all night. The remote did not turn the TV on or off, you could change the channels with the remote but not the power despite this giving them 3 stars as I think the new ownership are trying to update.

there was a mistake in the reservation, the hotel did not see it, but did accommodate me and found me a room. It was small but very comfortable and clean. The gentlemen who was the manager was so very pleasant and did everything he could to assist me and my party in getting a room for the evening. I took a card because I will definitely return and give this Inn my business, plus the views of the lake across the street are breathtaking.
