This is my second stay at the Lodge, and I really enjoyed time I spent here. Spacious, clean rooms. If you have not been here before, ALL rooms have a lake view. Bed was comfortable. Hot breakfast in the morning. I like that they got private beach. You can seat in the lounge chair, watch the lake, soak up the sun. Swimming pool is on a smaller side. GREAT staff, very friendly and helpful. I am looking forward to staying at the Lodge again.

In room 303, the entire room shook during the entire time I stayed from an exterior door shutting. I called the front desk and they told me the only room I could shift to was right by the lobby which hosts a bar and activities and would be loud as well. It was literally torture as I didn’t sleep at all with no recourse or solution offered.
