I stayed at this hotel this winter for a hockey tournament. I called the hotel before coming to…read moreask if they accept pets. The male owner asked what kind of pet, i said a cat and he said no way. He then went on a lecture about how cats always make a mess in the hotel rooms and they have to replace carpeting, etc. I said my cat has traveled with me for many years and never made a mess in a hotel room. He said yea yea that is what all cat owners say. I then said I would think about it. I called back an hour later to book the room and mentioned I had called earlier. He said are you the one with the cat....I said yes but I would not be bringing the cat and would come the next day. ( my cat was on daily fluids in his elder age which is why I couldn't leave him at home). He then threatened that if I even thought about bringing the cat...yadayada. My fiancee checked in and no one in the hotel but he put us in the room next to the office..I came without cat and spent the next night. Rooms were nice and clean but nothing special. I just think the guy didn't need to be such a jerk on the phone. Had the price not been 1/2 of every place in town I would have stayed elsewhere just on principle. Also there was a sign in the room about dogs but not cats.

My family stopped into the cafe on one of the final days of their 2022 season, and were served some hot and truly delicious food!

We also got to chat with the owners (who are super friendly!) and hear a little bit about their plans for the cafe's future. With great people and great food, I'll be rooting for this little cafe to become a major hit and will definitely be back next season!!

The rooms are very quiet, clean and scent free. The beds were firm but very comfortable. There's a nice pool that's well maintained and kept at a usable temperature. The staff was extremely nice and very efficient. The continental breakfast was a step above average. The dining area was clean and the selection of food was just right. I like that they had some great additions for children, and really aren't we all children at heart? There was a waffle making machine/station which my wife used with the help of the lady who was supervising, cleaning and restocking the area. They had a nice selection of breads and bagels with a toaster. There was also some biscuits and gray with sausage crumbles that you could add if you like. My favorite was the scrambled eggs with smoked kielbasa's on the side. There were little single serve peanut butter and jelly containers as well as butter. There was a refrigerator with fruit yogurt, milk, packages with two hard boiled eggs and for the children there was a fruit cup, apple sauce cup, Brekkies (a soft chocolate chip, oat and flax) cookie and last but not least Uncrustables. There was also single serve cereal containers ranging from mini-wheats to fruit loops. 24 hour coffee service was always spot on. All in all we had a very nice stay at a warm and friendly Inn.

It was nice having a couch and chairs that I could relax on rather than just having to sit on the bed. The odd thing to me, however, was that there's no closet and no great place to put your luggage. I think even a freestanding luggage rack would go a long way. They did have someplace to hang your clothes, but I do prefer an enclosed closet to cut down a clutter. I ended up putting my suitcase on a table. The breakfast selection was good. Very similar to other hotels like it. My biggest disappointment is that the associated restaurant is no longer open. It would be nice to wind down the evening with a glass of wine and a snack, but you can't have everything.

Yes it needs to be simple but the wood and aesthetic add to the welcome and comfortableNEss one needs on retreat. It is not austere but rather feels like a hotel in some sense...okay, more like a bed and breakfast. The views from the room are amazing. Food wise: simple and nourishing. Depending on how many folks are occupying the guesthouse can the food change...for example don't expect a full breakfast spread if there are only three retreatants. If you want an omelette head to the Ref. One thing is that the temperature in the room can't really be adjusted but that's my only gripe.

Yet, the purpose is meant to draw you to look at your surroundings - the woods, the lake, and the beautiful campus that makes up St. John's University. Personally, I've been less than pleased with my experience here. The retreat was much less than I expected, the food wasn't too impressive, the building lacks the kind of warmth one expects to find at a retreat facility. It's not a place that I'd long to return to. However, I did take advantage of prayer with the monks at the nearby Abbey Church. I'd have to say that that was a highlight of my time here.
