Check-in staff was very friendly and helpful with their limited resources. BUT - for $200 did NOT meet expectations. The TV and Internet never connected - just sat buffering even with password used to connect to WiFi. No coffee pods available and there was a used pod in the coffee pot. The small fireplace never came on although the wall furnace was great and easily warmed up the room. The bed springs, plastic mattress cover under the sheets and awful thin pillows made sleeping very uncomfortable (bring your own pillows). The roll of toilet paper was not enough to last the 24 hours so we had to go to office to pick one up - none in room. A "breakfast" was going to be available in the small 5'X5' "lobby" at 8:30 am but suspect very minimal - although we left as early as we could to escape (leaving the key in the mailbox because no locked dropbox and staff doesn’t arrive until 8:30am) and went out for breakfast on way out of town. The room was clean enough but the whole experience was dismal and disappointing for a $200 Saturday night stay.

I do not recommend staying here. Yes, the price it nice, but you get what you pay for. Immediately entering the room, it is super under whelming and run down. The walls are thin, we could hear the neighbors shouting and partying. When we returned after dinner, we noticed the door to the hallway was open on both the upstairs and downstairs, which felt very unsafe. Anyone can walk down the halls in the middle of the night. The cherry on top was the COCKROACHES in the bedroom! One came crawling on the bedside table right towards me! After this, we immediately packed up and left for another hotel. Did not even stay the night. And of course the hotel denied it and refused to refund us. Do Not Stay Here!

Upon first impressions, I really wanted to leave a 1-star review. The front office spells awful. Our room was not ready at check-in and when we did come in, the fumes of Fabulosa had us needing to leave. And even though our room was late because of being cleaned the place was still very dirty. Stains on sheets and a lot of dirt and hair. But, I can tell that they are trying to keep this place going and it could’ve been much worse. When I inquired about the fire place not working, they fixed it. The heat cranks really well! The property is lake front as the pictures show, but the rooms and garden view are inaccurate. Please do not depend on the complimentary breakfast. The takeaway for us, was that housekeeping needs an overhaul and everything else could be overlooked.

The main heater is not working, so we are relying on a portable heater and the fireplace. Additionally, the bathroom door gets stuck and required someone to kick it open to get out. The staff is nice and I discussed the issue with them.

Worst hotel experience ever! The room was completely uninhabitable. The room was freezing, the thermostat did not work, the entire hotel’s furnace was out, and the gas fireplace did not work in 30-degree temperatures! Live and dead cockroaches were present and there appeared to be bed bug residue on the sheets. The second of two “queen beds” was actually a hide-a-bed spring mattress only a few inches thick that offered no support from a plywood "box spring" and the bed squeaked loudly with any movement. The ramp leading to the stairs was covered in about two inches of mud and dangerously slippery. The whole place smelled of industrial chemicals. I checked in but immediately had to leave after inspecting the room because the place was uninhabitable. The manager called the proprietor who then audibly yelled at the manager and ordered her to refuse a refund. The only consolation they would offer was an electric space heater with no temperature control which was a fire hazard particularly on wood floors. I ended up having to drive myself and minor child home to Sacramento arriving at 2 am. Avoid this place at all costs.
