Just had the pleasure of staying at this great place for the past week! This was the cleanest place we have ever stayed. The owners were on site everyday and the hospitality they showed my wife and I was beyond measure! Great place, great people, and great location! Thank you for everything!

This place is top notch and Mrs. Debbie is awesome. There hospitality is unmatched! Clean rooms friendly people and a great atmosphere. We have been hunting land between the lakes staying in the fisherman’s cabin for the last four years and we love it here.
We had a wonderful time! Our room was very clean and we had all of the essentials we needed to prepare our meals there! The pool was great and they even opened it up just for us! Customer service was fantastic and they were wonderful to conversate with! We will definitely be back!!
Took a little Labor Day weekend getaway here & will definitely be back. Debbie was very helpful as well as her husband. We appreciate the last minute reservation. Very clean room and the pool was absolutely perfect! They had karaoke while we were there one night. Don’t let the prices fool you. Modest but clean and very neat. Thanks again!
We stayed at Lakeland while passing through the area for the night on a long roadtrip. Debbie (I think?) was the attendant and she was extremely nice and helpful. She waited up for us (we arrived at almost 11PM). We stayed in room #3. It had a queen and a full sized bed. Room was clean, bathroom was clean, beds were clean. AC window unit was working just fine. Mattresses were soft, pillows were soft. There was even a little table, microwave and mini fridge. Place was quiet and we slept well and woke up rested. We felt safe and would definitely stay there again. For the price and hospitality you can’t beat it!
Great place to stay. Always clean and comfortable and the owners are a blast
