Virkelig flot beliggenhed i skoven med til søen. Fint værelse vi havde, og det levede nok op til forventningerne, men når kvalitet og faciliteter sammenstilles med priser i området, så er prisen lige i overkanten. Venligt personale, som dog er svære at få fat på i ydertimerne.

Alt var helt perfekt. Rigtig god service. De ringede for at aftale inden vi ankom til vandrehjemmet. Værelset var rigtigt fint og morgenmaden var også super god. Men udsigten er fænomenal. Vi vågnede op lige ned til Skanderborg sø og kunne nyde solopgangen fra vores værelse.

Dejlig overnatning i hytte. Den var ikke prangende, sofaen trænger til udskiftning osv, men vi forventede heller ikke hotelstandard - og der var det, som vi havde brug for. Sød og venlig betjening, rent og pænt - og fantastiske omgivelser/beliggenhed. Vi kommer gerne igen.
