Really nice lodge, we booked our own apartment with ensuite. But when we arrived, my partner had to get in the shower and clean it before we used it. The drain was all clogged up. We were lucky enough to tell management and they gave us a hand.

The room had everything you need for making your stay comfortable. I want to highlight the kitchen that was brand new with all the amenities needed for cooking. Good location and quiet at night.
