We picked a room very close from the lake, they have a nice pit on the second floor and we where basically the only ones that day (it was during week days) wich was good. We enjoy a lot the outside area with the lake view.

They were doing some repairs next to our room and one of the entrances was kind of block.

I liked that everything was basically self service codes were a little tricky at first to understand which went to which building or door. The availability of bbq was nice and chairs etc. nice that is was close to the lake.

The parking lot next to building C had construction area so made it harder for access and when the marina launch was being used the parking spots for guest staying were a little limited due to that. also, no picking benches on that side for guest with rooms facing the parking lot unlike the courtyard side. need a little more description when booking so we know which rooms face the courtyard or lake.

Love the location and the privacy. Every room seemed to be a bit different, love the amenities. When I went it was colder than it was forecasted. The first rain of the year and the heater wasn't working at first. I emailed the owners and within 10 minutes a maintenance guy came down checked it out and left to get a room heater. My email didn't even update with a reply yet by the time he was done. I really appreciated the fast fix so we could continue to enjoy our visit!

• Location above all, is GREAT. Right next to the lake, and the piers, lawn and mini-beach to access it, boat rental place right next to motel. Easy walk to public beach area (not needed, but a lively spot) and great pub nearby, and convenience store and a very popular ice cream shop across the road. • One of the better room prices in this expensive area (though still pricey).

- Lack of a/c (didn't note that when I booked) and ventilation: Screen door for sliding glass door broken, had to mess with it often to keep it upright in the opening, and that door and then also the room's front door to the hall needed to be left open at end of day to cool the room down (no cross breeze without leaving the room door to hall open, too), but that door had no door stop or kickstand, so I had to jam something under the door to stop it closing. Fortunately, Donner's way up in elevation, so the lack of a/c wasn't critical, even on a hot day. Things cool off well at night, but this was a hassle to create the cross breeze, and this also creates a privacy/security issue while the hall door is open, which it needs to be for awhile to get the room cooled down. Being male and traveling alone, that didn't matter to me, but would probably be an issue for a single woman or a couple. Regardless, the doors to rooms without a/c should all have kickstands installed on their exterior sides in light of this situation and all screen doors need to be operational. - No 'Do Not Disturb/Housekeeping Requested' signs for door handle, and housekeeping knocked on my door at 8:30 on my checkout day. Way too early for someone on vacation. Might have been asleep still, or in shower, or other things were I not alone... Lodging 101: Venues need to have a way to indicate that a room's been vacated, not have maids just knock at whatever time.
