So peaceful. Waking up to the amazing view of the lake and surrounding woodland each morning was just beautiful. We loved the apartment - light filled and spacious. The beds were very comfortable. It was very clean and welcomed our little dog. Has everything you need, except for condiments, foil/plastic wrap, coffee filters and laundry products. As it is a garage apartment, the steps may be difficult for someone with mobility issues. Liked the self check in, although struggled a bit with figuring out how to open the key holder. Some excellent restaurants in the area. Would not hesitate to stay there again!
Window view!
So relaxing!
