This place was exactly what we saw online and the staff were lovely. What an awesome way to spend the afternoon overlooking the lake with a quick (freezing) dip in the lake then kicking back relaxing.

Check in great as I arrived early just to get paper work done first but they told me room was ready. So easy going with everything. Staff really accommodating. We were so close to town and we had two different Mountain View's from room. Internet was fast as I had to work remotely a couple of days. Washing machine in the room was great as my husband was skiing and could wash each time. For a studio room it was very spacious. We would come again.

We were given an upgrade to a three bedroom apartment on arrival which we didn't really need with only the two of us. Apartment was amazing, almost as big as out unit at home. View of the lake was spectacular. Garage was a little narrow but an unexpected bonus anyway. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Great to have a fully equipped laundry and an amazing kitchen. Would definitely recommend it.

I cant speak more highly of the friendly customer service we received on our three night stay. From having the room warmed up ready for our arrival to putting a towel on our cars windscreen while the rest of the town frosted over. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The property is just a short stroll to the main street. Definitely recommended for good value for money accommodation.
