Great Hotel! We walked around the lake and we went to the Marina for dinner. It was delicious! We had a concert at the Anderson Music Hall. After the concert, we drove to the hotel. We really loved it! It was convenient, but just enough, so it was quiet and all by myself.

The property was very nice and clean. The staff was friendly. The only complaint I have is that we were on the 1st. floor and we could hear everything going on up above us. Oh and I did pay extra for lake side and the view was not very good.
