From start to finish this was an outstanding visit. Our studio was immaculate with all the amenities we could need and a lovely view. In fact the entire site is incredibly clean and well maintained. The shower was awesome and the towels “just right”. The location of the motel was ideal for sitting watching the Lake and mountains or walking into town for dinner / drinks. Our hosts Christine and Dave were so kind, helpful, knowledgeable and friendly- nothing was too much trouble. We can’t wait to return for a stay as we arrived as strangers and left having made new friends. Christine and Dave - thank you for a wonderful visit and we will see you in 2026
