"We were able to have all our families come in from NY, WA, OH and CO and stay while we had two graduate fro Liberty. The house had plenty of room, lots of fun games and being on the lake was wonderful. Thank you!"

"This property was exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed our stay immensely. It fit our family of 4 very nicely. The view from the cabin was beautiful. If you have a boat, there is a dock you can tie up to. I will say the stairs to the dock are very steep and may be challenging for older guests, but they did not bother us. The owner was responsive and easy to work with."

Holiday Inn Express Danville, an IHG Hotel

5/5 Excellent

"The room was very nice! The bed was comfortable, and the shower was very relaxing. The bathroom was equipped with Dove products (body wash, shampoo & conditioner, and lotion) and a hairdryer. The room also had a Keurig coffee maker, which was a major plus! The breakfast buffet was available every morning from 6am-10am and offered scrambled eggs, pork sausage, turkey sausage, cheese omelets, pancakes, coffee, fruit juices, and a variety of other breakfast items like danishes, pastries, bagels, and fruit. The hotel also has an exercise room and laundry room that we did not use, but good to know they were available."
