"The home was clean and did a few views of the lake through some small windows. The picture of there Hot tub situated on a what looks like a gravel terrace is completely false. We never even stepped into the tub (it was clean) because it sits low on a terraced yard and when you stood at the hot tub you could not even see the lake. It was actually behind the RR tracks which were not shown in the picture. We enjoyed our stay in Interlaken and exploring al the spectacular beauty but the property is definitely NOT as described. Again, a nice place but not as described which made it expensive for what we got."

"The location is amazing! We were so happy to get away from crowded spaces part way through our vacation. The property is located on a small ski resort and as suggested by the host, it would be best to arrive during daylight hours. The drive up the hill is narrow at times and winding but manageable. The property is located near some great hiking trails and really close to a cute restaurant that has the best soft serve ice cream I've ever had. The hosts were wonderful and really attentive. The only negative was that the space was a bit small for 3 adults but we would stay here again. I already miss having my morning coffee outside in the quiet looking at the mountains."
