For beginners...Adam, and partner/spouse Josie, are the ultimate in concierge/guest care. The rooms are not just clean, but immaculate...with every amenity a guest could hope for. Total cable viewing, coffee and maker, microwave, and seperate sleeping/bath facilitieas. A short stroll to the pier/docks area one can view some of the most beautiful sunsets imaginable, only memory and camera could describe... More

It was newly renovated, flat screen tv's, refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker and it was so clean that I swear you could eat off the floor! The person at the check in desk... More

This is a GREAT inexpensive, VERY clean inn on the lake. It is within 25 minutes of the Forever Florida Zipline Adventure, which made it a perfect place to stay the night. The cafe was not open, so check before you go if you plan on eating there. We enjoyed our stay.

My wife and I stayed at Lakeside and found it very clean and comfortable. The old room had been 100% renovated with flat screen tv as well as frig, microwave, and coffee maker etc. Best of all for us was the lake side amenities where we watched a spectacular sunset while sipping wine-- absolutely peaceful and memorable.

New owners Adam and Josie are doing a great job sprucing up. The location is great if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle. We arrived in the middle of the night and they were ready for us! Greeted by the Sandhills cranes in the am and beautiful lake view. Rooms have fridge and most importantly...coffee! If... More

Staff incredibly friendly! Went out of their way to be helpful and accomadating. Room modest but clean and comfortable. Sat on the pier and watched the sun go down. Had breakfast on the deck of the restaurant. Overall a very relaxing weekend.

Tiled flooring is great (no bedbugs here!), Everything is available; Mini frig, microwave, coffee maker, iron & board, Cable TV, & Wi-Fi. There is a Cafe that faces... More

Options are very, VERY limited in St Cloud. VERY limited. There are only a handful of places to stay and eateries and literally nothing to do there. We went to visit friends. I think I would have had a better time pitching a tent in their yard. People were really nice, place was clean but rather unwelcoming. Bare bones, no... More
