Needed an afford able room for a work trip in Lengby. The bar and restaurant was a great perk after working a long day. Reggie the dog was great and good for the additive after work.

Our stay was excellent, staff was very friendly. Including their ‘furry friend’ staff. Dennis was such a good boy! Rooms could use a little updating, but over all comfortable and accommodating. Excellent view of the lake. Very beautiful property.

Not the best for winter accomodations
A winter stay in this cabin was not a good choice. Snow blew in under the door, floor heating units not great and carpet frayed and furniture very old. Beds squeaky and soft. The sheets and towels were clean and the breakfast had some nice muffin choices. The hotel lobby was clean and tidy and decorated for the holidays nicely. Really pretty view of the frozen lake.

The view is so peaceful and having a fire near the beach was really wonderful. The shower seemed to have some issues, the water wouldn't drain so we had to take take quick showers in shin deep water. It was great and plan to go back more often.
