I have never slept in more uncomfortable. Bed springs were popping constantly and you felt every single one of them neither my husband or I got any sleep at all. We booked it for two nights. We stayed one and we just left. We packed up and left. I have a bad back and for two days now it’s been hurting.
Location to pond was nice. The room was very disappointing. If you sat on the end of the bed, the mattress was so thin that it came off the frame.
When you entered into the room, it had a bad odor.
When I booked the room through expedia, it stated that it had a microwave and it didn't. It also did not hava a coffee maker.
We (2 people) stayed for 2 nights, and we were given two full sized towels and two washcloths, so we had to reuse the towels. For the price I paid for this room it should have been more accomadating and updated!

Pleasant place close to great places to enjoy nature
Beautiful view of the water, but our room was a bit outdated with old beds and thin bed coverings. The room also did not smell fresh — there was a bit of an odor. Staff was attentive, but rooms could definitely be updated
Property was very convenient and the location was outstanding. Needed changes would be to change their name on their sign.

ok so, the reservations guy...so helpful and accommodating so he gets an A...the facilities in the room are poor. we have stayed in many motels all over New England and they all offered mini fridge, coffee maker and coffee and microwave..;like its standard and those place were much cheaper in cost so that was the let down for us.
