Staff was exceptional and available, clean property lived the kayaks and campfires/s’mores every night. Breakfast was very good and fresh and cleaned continuously. Great proximity to ferries and downtown.
This motel had a beautiful view of the lake and bridge, amd everynight they lit campfires and provided the makings for s'mores. All of the employees were so helpful and friendly.
The room was very modern. Love that the pull out sofa bed is actually comfortable. Love how nice the people are who are running the place. Have an awesome view of the bridge and water. Would stay here again!
Our room was a little small, but adequate. The staff and special touches make this hotel a great place to vacation. Ralston's attention to detail and genuine hospitality made our stay very enjoyable. We hope to visit again some day.
Very nice hotel especially for the price! Very friendly staff. Love the bonfires every night. Only small complaints are the “sandy beach” area doesn’t go into the water and the spectrum tv was spotty sometimes. Other than that great stay and will be back
Very clean, staff was very friendly, Good choices for breakfast. Loved the bonfires each night and staff passed out stuff for everyone on the beach for smores. Loved the view from our balcony. Great stay.
We needed a place to stay last minute and this was one of the only locations with an opening. This night stay ended up being amazing- our suite was right on the water, the beds were comfortable and the room had everything we needed. The firepits and s’mores were so fun. I definitely recommend this place for Families.
Room was clean and functional. No maid service for multiple night stays, just towels. Beds not as comfy as home, yet sufficient. Nice ambiance around the beach area with the fire-pit complete w s'mores. Disappointed in the beach is not swim-able. Would stay there again.
The view was spectacular. Friendly staff. Came back to my room after gone all day. Clean towels and room provided. Only downside is bathroom is very small. Would recommend and stay again.
Everything from the moment we arrived to when we sadly had to leave was exceptional. Every staff member we encountered was absolutely amazing and so friendly with any of our questions. The view from our room was exactly what I wanted. I cannot wait to stay here again a truly five out of five star Experience.
