Our room was spotless, well arranged and had a comfort of home feel. Walk in shower was nice, but the open design (without door) leaves you chilled after showering. Otherwise excellent and I would come back.

we had an amazing beach view with a fireplace. breakfast was delicious. My only ask is for freshly made oatmeal as the instant is not as good. We were off season so that may be why. Otherwise the entire experience was just the best and the team was attentive and outstanding!

If i could give this hotel 2.5 stars i would have. Pros:Our room was nice, clean, and spacious. The hotel has a good location. Cons: below average amenities. Pool is small. They advertise a game room, very lame. They advertise the "best breakfast" it was below average for any hotel

The location is absolutely amazing, with a stunning lake view right in front of you. Even if there were any minor issues with the stay, the kindness and friendliness of the staff made all complaints fade away. Breakfast was a bit disappointing since the menu was the same two days in a row. However, the unlimited cookies and coffee were a real highlight and truly wonderful. Thanks to that, we’re leaving with sweet memories. We’re already looking forward to coming back in the summer!
