The view of the lake and private beach are amazing features! The newness of the building shows with nice furniture and indoor features. We would have liked if there was a pool and breakfast was not left at your door but was fresh and had different options. Cleanliness was mostly good, just the shower door towards the bottom was a bit dirty (rust or mold) and there were a lot of spiderwebs outside on the fence/deck area. Another issue was sound is not muffled well from the hallway, there is a lot of reverb. Otherwise the hotel was very nice and modern and staff were helpful!
