Great location and awesome pool and spa. The spa was rather dirty but we used it regardless and tried not to mind. The room itself probably needs a good dusting cause myself and my partner found eachother constantly sneezing and having runny noses throughout our stay. Their rooms dont always have a microwave but they were fast to bring one to us. Unfortunately we were unable to use the kettle in the morning as the heating element looked extremely rusted and unsafe/dirty. The TV was not smart so watching netflix is not an option unfortunately. We did appreciate they had a charging station for EV cars and the location was just great. Good walk to the central resturaunts.

Loud pipes inside walls, stay on the second floor.
Upon entering the room, I immediately noticed some pipes inside the wall making a loud, constant noise, about TV volume. I spoke with reception, and they informed me that they couldn’t do anything and that I should speak to a manager who would be in the next morning. After a sleepless night, I returned the next morning, and was told the manager would arrive in the afternoon. I returned later and was able to switch rooms. My advice for anyone staying here is to request a room on the second floor, as my second night was fine.

Not great. Terrible shower, hard bed. Folks in the room next door needed to borrow some toilet paper. Pool is much smaller than the photos make it look. Upstairs room nose came through. Noisy fridge. And not even that cheap.

What I love about this lodge is you open up the window and you can hear the sounds of nature all around you. You can see the greenery. You can feel the chill in the air from the lake across the way. The bathtub is deep with a built-in pillow and spaces for your arms the bed, the pillows everything made for your comfort and rest. Exactly what I needed.

No Aircon and it was hot. Parking was difficult. Room was older and could use an upgrade. A shub instead of a shower is not my preference.
