"What a great discovery for visits to the Iowa Great Lakes! The room and entire property were exceptionally clean, with great amenities like fire pits and corn hole games for guest use and tables outside each room with checkers sets for great evening lounging. The staff were nice kind and welcoming and management was available, attentive and also very kind. This place lives up to the “Iowa nice” reputation of the region. The location is also excellent—central to the entire Lakes area. I couldn’t have been more pleased with my stay."
