Washburn Inn is nice enough, well-maintained and very clean. However, there is no elevator to the second floor, and while the room is very pleasant it is not luxurious. There was a night stand and reading light on only one side of the bed. We felt that at over $280 per night, this was not a good value. It was in line with similar rooms in the region for more like $160 to $200.

This hotel is just a landing spot to sleep with comfortable beds, not super obnoxious air conditioners, and roomy rooms enough space to layout suit cases and coolers. There is not much for amenities but we were well aware when booking the hotel, no pool, breakfast or common space area. Access to the lake was a bonus. My boys enjoyed fishing off the dock every night and morning. The hotel is quiet and there is a nice sitting place outside.

The room and bathroom were clean. But overall it is highly overpriced for the facilities and services available. Being one of very few hotels in the area is probably part of it.

The staff was very helpful and friendly, especially when someone was knocking on my door at 10 at night and the peepholes were plugged up. I called the front desk and they went to look and see what was going on. I didn’t get a response from them, but it stopped. Great little place to stay!

Nice place to stay. Beautiful views of the lake. Only downside was our room door that would not latch properly unless you really slammed the door shut. Even then it would not latch all the way. A security concern. Did not sleep well as a result. Definitely needs to be fixed.
