Although the hotel is not fancy, the rooms are prepared nicely with coffee pots, microwaves, and refrigerators. They have AC. The beach area is rather disappointing; it's very minimal and can quickly be overcrowded. I wonder if some landscaping might provide more access to the lake.

False advertising. I paid $168/night and there was no pool and no beach. I was willing to pay the price because the photos and description called it a “Lodge”. This place was a roadside motel. We were next to the road so loud we couldn’t sleep. Although we paid for 2 nights we left in 18 hours. It showed a dining room that was not there. The beach access was sand about 3ft wide in the middle of reeds. Couldn’t even swim. I want a refund or at least a credit from expedia

The property is dated and in need of some maintenance, website shows a pool and it looks like it hasn’t been operational for some years. Staffing hours are incorrect and too many inconsistent answers, no one can give you a straight answer other than the person doing the housekeeping or the guy working the boat rental who is working very hard. We won’t be returning to this place.
