Beautiful place for a celebration
The room was modern, very clean, and in the most gorgeous setting! The view of the lake from our balcony was breathtaking! It was especially beautiful with the fall colors and perfect weather! Couldn’t have found a better place to celebrate my wife’s birthday!

We loved being able to see the water view from our room. The room was nice and clean. I rarely sit in jacuzzies, but this outdoor one was perfect to relax in after two days of hiking. We also sat in the sauna and like the "small town" feel of this hotel.
