Nice property! Very large and has a beautiful view of the lake. A little outdated but still nice. Door was a little hard to open all the way and tub needs to be cleaned to remove stains( no idea if it’s rust). Breakfast was good with many options.

The View Room, overlooking the lake was delightful. The colourful autumn leaves against the sun and the water was delightful. It is a calm oasis in the city.
