Positive: The Inn does not offer breakfast. They provide coffee, packaged Danish, some bananas and apples. The outside porch offers great views of the lake. The staff, especially Leslie, were friendly and courteous. Leslie responded right away to any concerns or questions.
Negative: I was surprised to find no hand soap in the bathroom. No small bottles of anything are offered. We went out to buy shampoo, shower soap, and hand soap for the bathroom. The incessant tractor-trailer traffic to and from US Salt during the day is annoying. Apparently we should have had some kind of signage to let staff know we needed linen change, cleaning, but we did not ever see the sign.
Summary: I would return to the Inn in the future.
