The room was either updated recently or has been well taken care of, as it was very nice and comfortable. Since we were there in December we couldn't use their many amenities such as their beach or outside hot tub. Maybe next time!!

Room decor was nice and updated. Fan was loud and climate control tended towards extremes. Very quiet in off season. Tandem kayak trip was very nice. Continental breakfast was good and included scrambled eggs and sausage patties. Jacuzzi and fire pit were good as well as relaxing on the beach.

Great spot, beautiful lakefront beach and beautiful views! The rooms with balconies are great. Free hot and continental breakfast also a plus, many restaurants are closed/ have short hours due to Covid.

4.5 Stars The first night we checked into a beach level room- King- but it only had one chair inside- we did pull a chair from outside in.
No extra little side table which given the temps, and lack of indoor spaces to eat a small moveable side table would have been appreciated.
Only one luggage rack so very few places for 2 people to put luggage.
These are my main suggestions.

The Bed was comfortable. The shower and bathroom were great.

The gentleman at the front desk was not super helpful= we went up and asked for a table or another tray to use to eat off of== but the next day we were moved

We had a wonderful quick stay. The corner room on the water is a MUST! Even in the winter, just gorgeous! Everything was clean and such an easy location to all that I love around Meredith! Can't wait to come back and stay longer.

Beautiful views of the lake from our 4th floor room - very clean and looked-like-new hotel. The front desk was very accommodating with and let me check in a little early since my room was ready, without hassle. Solid free continental breakfast in the morning. Lots of other amenities included (jacuzzi access, lakefront access). Not a big/loud hotel. Fits in nice with the lake-feel and has a bunch of stores nearby in case you forgot something.

Cleanest looking cabin style hotel ever stayed! Great hospitality & awesome lake view with fall colors around. The room was spacious and the balcony was so serene. Would definitely love to come back.

They had a great price $79 per night. The room was OK. The locations was excellent and peaceful. However, the internet was extremely bad so I had to use my own hotspot at my expense. The place could use a few upgrades but it did have a refrigerator in the room. The hallways smelled my my old dentists office which isn't a good memory! LOL The cellphone reception was very spotty at that location so if you depend on cell phones to communicate you might want to test out your carrier there. We use AT&T. All in all a bargain at $79.

I've recently book this hotel through Groupon for 2 nights. Between the false advertising and carefully placed photography, don't expect to get what you see nor read. It was a huge dissappointment and not worth the 4 hour drive it took to get here. If I wanted to go to sleep in a dank room that was poorly painted or to walk in hallways that have things like lightbulbs leaning against the wall, I would have crashed with Norman Baits. Do yourself a favor and stay in Plymouth.
