We had an amazing stay. The service by all staff was excellent and makes you feel special. The food is the best. Breakfast is so good and a nice start to the day. The grounds and access to the lake is he best I would highly recommend this establishment.

We enjoyed our stay, basic rooms, comfortable beds. Scenic setting, even in the winter. Friendly, helpful staff. Enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor saunas. Really nice buffet breakfast that was included. One option for lunch and dinner, pub style food but tasty. During the warmer months you have 2 options for dining.

We paid extra for a balcony and the balcony wasn't even equipped with seating making it pointless!
