    All members of the staff were extremely polite and accommodating. During the virus they respected personal space more so than any other hotel we’ve visited during the pandemic due to home repairs. They have had some bad reviews but all-in-all, given the circumstances, imagine the drama they have to deal with everyday. If you’re a straightforward person, they’ll be the same with you. The room was clean and quiet. Perfect!…

    The Lake Hodges home is beautiful both inside and out.
