They really are a bit deceptive with the cabins. They use pictures of the new beachfront cabins for all of them, but some of them are actually 1950s courtyard. Be careful what you are booking. That being said, the beachfront cabin was absolutely fantastic.

Hot tub and night view worth it all
We had a balcony room and it was clean. The view was amazing of the island and bridge at night. The pool was nice, the hot tub was fantastic! Park lot when busy is kinda hectic but overall was good stay.

Do not stay here….
The photos on hotels.com do not reflect what the rooms are. There are newer cabins on the property, the photos of those are the only posted. Our first room had a smell, the sheets had something on them, the screen was torn, there was a hole in the ceiling the balcony was falling apart, and there was a chaise lounge couch on it soaked from the rain, musty and so dirty. We kindly asked for a new room to which the front desk said they had upgraded us to this room… we had booked a double queen courtyard and they gave us a balcony beachside. We moved to the courtyard and this room was somewhat passable, still smelly and still not worth the money that was spent! It was too late to move hotels and the strict cancellation policy would not allow us to get our money back. Expedia.com did provide a credit on our next stay.

Scam
Completely misleading photos. Shows only the 3 cabins by the water and does not show 95% of rooms which are cheap and dirty and look nothing like advertised. Wooden coat hangers in place of broken locks on all windows…

Neighbor using a hairdryer caused the power to go out in several rooms including ours, rooms were obviously delayed maintenance and it smelled of mildew.

It was a very nice room for the price. Check in was by a very pleasant lady. The beds were comfortable and the room and especially the bathroom was very clean. It was a quiet room with no traffic noise in the night. Overall, I would stay at this hotel again.

The hotel is so outdated and old. It doesn't look or smell good. It needs a lot of work to be considered as a good place to stay at and enjoy. The location is not bad at all, you are close to the lake but I didnt like my room and stayed there only for the cheap price. I will not stay there again and definitely wont recommend it to others.
