Fun Activities Galore!

“I had such a blast using the kayaks and paddleboards during my stay! Being able to paddle out onto the beautiful lake right from the hotel was a perfect way to unwind after a day full of hiking. The volleyball court and firepit added extra fun to our evenings, making it an overall enjoyable experience.” view full review

I had a delightful experience at this resort spa. The rooms were both clean and spacious, providing a luxurious feel. The location by the lake was perfect for unwinding, plus the pool area was an extra bonus for relaxation. However, while the dining options were decent, I found the breakfast menu could use some variety. Overall, it was great value for money, but the Wi-Fi was an additional charge that felt a bit off.

However, I found the dining options to be limited and not very inspiring. The amenities were nice, but it would have been great if the Wi-Fi was complimentary.

My stay at the resort spa was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and clean, providing a comfortable retreat after a long day. I loved how conveniently located it was, just a stone's throw from the lake. However, the dining options could use a little improvement as I found the selection limited. The amenities were decent, though the Wi-Fi should ideally be included in the price.
