Beautiful grounds. Enjoyed free use of kayaks and bikes. Cottage was lovely with plenty of room for the four of us. Only issue was the bottom rack of dishwasher...it did not roll in and out smoothly.

Nice hotel - cozy - free breakfast. Only irritant was the heating system kicking in and out right by the bed all night. It was difficult to sleep through.

We really enjoyed our room at the lodge!

Pros: location and price
The lodge staff were very friendly and the room was really nice and clean. Great view, we would love to come back in the summer.

The cottages were very cute and clean! Reasonably priced. I loved that there were included items such as the bikes to use on the bike trails and kayaks and canoes. The breakfast could have been better. We'd definitely go back!
