This resort was absolutely stunning! The amenities were abundant and so appreciated. Every cottage was clean and had more than everything we could have wanted. The location is perfect, right in the lake while still close to town with plenty of activities. Sheena was fantastic with communication and tips for us. Our family would love to return soon!!!
