The lake is beautiful, the food at the restaurant was very good and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Would stay again as it is almost $300 a night less than our next hotel.

"It was a place to rest and refresh while driving around the Kenai Peninsula. Free breakfast was nice. The restaurant was closed, so we could not experience that. The bed was comfortable. The TV controller was a little challenging to get to work at first. Really appreciated having a mini fridge to store our snacks. The top shelf did freeze. Not high end luxury but it hit the mark when we needed a place to stay for a night."
