The Fourth Lock Bed & Breakfast

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property overlooking the lake. The building was very clean. Lovely sitting area and gorgeous deck. Sitting area was stocked with coffee, tea, water, yogurt and juice. Our room was clean and spacious. The bed was very soft. Nice linens. Our room was above the restaurant so we had noise from the restaurant until around 10 pm. We ate at the restaurant. Very cute with great wait staff. Food was good. We enjoyed a continental breakfast left for us in our mini-fridge. Muffins, fruit, granola bars. Communications with owners were very good. Instructions were very clear. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this cute BnB."
