The island house is a beautiful old hotel on an absolutely fabulous piece of property with beautiful grounds. It has a lot of character that you would expect from 100 year-old Building in a great location super walkable to the downtown area. And the dinner restaurant there was fantastic.

The Hotel is nestled on a small hill with a breathtaking view of a gorgeous lake. The outdoor area is spectacular, featuring beautiful flowers that line the perimeter and comfortable lounging chairs with fire pits. The room is on the smaller side, but it’s surprisingly comfortable and exceptionally clean. The lobby has plenty of seating areas, two wonderful restaurants, and a mini mart for snacks and liquor. I would highly recommend this hotel.
