Mountain Lake Lodge

Mountain Lake Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The pool and hot tubs were very unique and well placed to enjoy the view while soaking or swimming. The most uniqueness about the hot tubs and pool is that they are open 24 hours. The staff helpfulness went above and beyond our expectations. Kudos to Jim (evening shift) and Laura (morning shift)! The unit was very comfortable. The only criticism I have was that the lake view room was not exactly as described. You could see the lake from specific angles. That did not take away from our accommodations experience. We would definitely go back there."

8/10 Good
"NEGITIVE: There was no staff, reception area or in person check in. There was a phone number in the motel window to call and check in. They gave you the access code, and you gave them card info over the phone. The whole process doesn't seem secure at all. There were also a lot of mosquitos, I probably killed about 20 of them inside the room. POSITIVE: The room was rustic and very cozy. It was also clean and in a convenient location. Gas station, little convenient store, gift shop and a few restaurants nearby. If they got rid of the mosquito problem and made a more secure check in process, perhaps in person, I would stay here again and recommend it."
