We had a great stay at Lancaster lodge. It was lovely to hear the sound of the river and the happy crowds passing by at night.
The room was clean and spacious and the front desk staff took care of our needs.

Overall good. Only compliant was we put a do not disturb sign outside the door to indicate we didnt want room service but it still got serviced. Not sure if a random stranger switched the sign after we left or what not.

Great help from the front desk.
Great visit wished we had more time the front desk staff were extremely warm and inviting. He made a map to help us find places to eat and recommended a few places. One of his recommendations we were fortunate enough to get into and it was delicious.
