The staff was extremely friendly. That was the positive part of the experience. Paying extra for a lakeside view was a complete waste of money. There were spider webs and gigantic spiders all over the balcony. I don't mean one or two. It was covered in spiders from top to bottom. We could not enjoy the amazing view at all. Paying almost $300 for one overnight stay, certainly comes with expectations. Mine were not met. It was my husbands birthday and his only request was to smoke cigars lakeside. This place appeared to be perfect. Not only was the patio covered in spiders, the sliding door was COMPLETELY covered in what the staff referred to as 'lake flies'. The room itself was nice, but difficult to enjoy when you're swatting bugs every few seconds. It was like something out of a movie. We went to sleep itching and completely disgusted.
