Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a ground floor pet friendly unit which made taking our dog for a walk very easy. We faced the lake so had a nice view and it was very quiet.
From check-in to departure, everything about our stay at The Inn on Long Lake was perfect: the king suite overlooking the lake was spacious, clean and comfortable, the lady at check-in was very attentive and kind and the young man at check-out was equally polite and efficient. We have stayed before and will stay again! We missed having scrambled eggs at breakfast but maybe that's only a weekend item? No worries, we like the place and we will see you again.
