Very lovely place to stay. The lake is very pretty with lots of wildlife. Although the hotel is older, it is very quaint. It is also very quiet, the staff were very pleasant and helpful, and the room and bathroom were so very nice. I’d definitely stay here again.

Its a nice little hotel not too far from the Dunes. The breakfast is ok, nothing to write home about. But there are a number of fast food and small restaurants very close to the property. We would stay here again if we were coming back to the area.

Was close to the National Park. Rooms are what you’d expect. Pillows could have been better. Water pressure decent and the breakfast at least didn’t have the powdered eggs that a lot of places put out. Decent value for a place to crash after hiking the Dunes.
