Nice little place
A nice clean inn on a quiet road. Next to the lake, small beach and kids playground. Bbq and firepit in the back. Ample parking. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. We intend to return in the spring.

We absolutely enjoyed our secret getaway! The staff was so friendly and the lake view is stunning…. When you are just looking for a quiet but friendly place to stay for a night or two, check in with them!

Very Clean, Great Service
The place was very clean, customer service was very good and the view was beautiful. Great for the value. I really want to be able to give 5 stars but it was super loud/hard to sleep with people moving around upstairs. I really don't think the other visitors were doing anything wrong, just there isn't enough of a sound barrier (maybe because of non carpeted floors). Also, we both had back aches due to the mattress. Would definitely return though, but would only stay upstairs next time.

Stayed for one night, property has an excellent view of the water. The property also had a backyard space with a firepit that we enjoyed in the evening. Room was spacious and clean. The bathroom could use an upgrade as well as the kitchen counter space. However, that was minor. Beds were comfortable. Overall we were satisfied, it was a little overpriced.

Pleasantly surprised, nicer than I was expecting for an older property. Friendly, welcoming owner at check-in. Gorgeous view of the sunset. Will definitely book again for our next concert at Casino Rama.

We spent 2 nights at the Lakeside Inn. It was a small quiet room, clean and nice. We loved the lakeview patio. The one downside was that the beds were not comfortable but overall it was like the pictures and we would stay again!

Overall, an excellent stay for the affordable price. It would feel safer if there was a deadbolt on the cabin door. Anyone could have easily broken in with a firm flexible piece of plastic or strip metal. With that said … I would stay again.

We booked here as we had an early morning nature walk to attend and didn't want to get up at 4am to get here. Great location & check in was very quick & friendly. We were in one of the cabins which was spacious clean and comfortable. There was a nice sitting area out back with the cabins, which being a very nice evening we used. We come this way frequently & will definitely stay here again.

This is a true hidden gem! We loved everything about this place. The owners are lovely, and they have made this inn so beautiful. It is close to restaurants & casino Rama (we went to a concert at Rama). There are 2 floors to the inn & we were on the 2nd floor. No problem. Parking around the back of the building brings you right to the door of your room. No climbing stairs. The Lakeview is so beautiful from the balcony at the front of the inn. The rooms are very clean & have everything in them, including a mini fridge with a small freezer (not sure if all the rooms have a freezer in their fridge but ours did), a coffee maker, nice dresser & air conditioning. Lovely place. We will be back for sure!!
