We have stayed at this hotel before and loved it. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very clean. The pool area is kept spotless, no mess. The breakfast is delicious. They make sure that they don't run out of food. It is hot and they keep the area very clean.

This was a great place to stay. I took my elderly mom and she liked it too. The room was spacious and quiet. Our main problem was there was no full length mirror and only the one mirror above the bathroom sink. The breakfast was decent and slightly better than other hotel breakfasts I've had lately. I'd definitely stay here again.

A wonderfully economical, clean, comfortable, friendly hotel and staff. I’m not typically the “lodge” type but the reviews were impressive. I found the vibe welcoming and homey. We loved the large fire pit. Jenn was friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming. It turned out to be a good choice. If you have time, the Greenbelt trail is lovely. Take a stroll.
