Our stay was short but we enjoyed walking the property, the community fire pit (met some very nice people) and used the pool facilities. Highly recommend this place, especially with kids as there are other facilities that are kid-centric that we did not use.

The place is very convenient and we can get access to parks and skiing very easily. The owners are very nice and kind, they refunded me one night since I booked for two nights but can only stay for one night. Highly recommend it and will come back in summer.

Nice and accommodating resort

Nice resort with a nice and private beach, staff were nice and they accommodated my EV charging which made getting there and back home a lot easier. Our cottage had a lot of flies inside like a dozen or so, they were a bit annoying. I would’ve wished that they had a way to get rid of them when the cottages are empty. Otherwise the view was amazing, nice activities. We took the cheaper chalet, rooms and bathroom were small and nothing fancy but does the job

Just spent the weekend here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We arrived in the dark and they made it very easy to get to our cabin. The cabin was very clean, lovely soft towels and all the utensils and gadgets were supplied. A little home away from home with a rustic feeling. The mornings were beautiful and quiet. The 3 deer that wandered up onto the beach was a peasant view with my morning coffee. A much apprecieated weekend away. Thank you !!

The scenic beauty around the property was the best !! The walking trails were a real treat. We did see a few deer's during our trail in much closer distance. We wanted to see how it does look in snow and are planning to revisit the place.
