We had an amazing experience at the hotel, as our unit was incredibly clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed, and we appreciated the tasty homemade cookies left in our room. With stunning views of the lake, the location was perfect for exploring—the town's shops and cafes were just a short walk away. Plus, the shuttle service to a local restaurant made dining out easy and convenient.
