8/10 Good
"The hotel was beautiful and the best location. Our room was supposed to have a lake view which it had however there was a huge tree that blocked almost all the view of the lake. I wish the hotel had a pool. The breakfast was outstanding. Lots of varieties. Overall I would recommend it. The only thing I wish it had was a swimming pool."
