Loud pipes inside walls, stay on the second floor.
Upon entering the room, I immediately noticed some pipes inside the wall making a loud, constant noise, about TV volume. I spoke with reception, and they informed me that they couldn’t do anything and that I should speak to a manager who would be in the next morning. After a sleepless night, I returned the next morning, and was told the manager would arrive in the afternoon. I returned later and was able to switch rooms. My advice for anyone staying here is to request a room on the second floor, as my second night was fine.

Not great. Terrible shower, hard bed. Folks in the room next door needed to borrow some toilet paper. Pool is much smaller than the photos make it look. Upstairs room nose came through. Noisy fridge. And not even that cheap.

What I love about this lodge is you open up the window and you can hear the sounds of nature all around you. You can see the greenery. You can feel the chill in the air from the lake across the way. The bathtub is deep with a built-in pillow and spaces for your arms the bed, the pillows everything made for your comfort and rest. Exactly what I needed.

No Aircon and it was hot. Parking was difficult. Room was older and could use an upgrade. A shub instead of a shower is not my preference.

Wasn't expecting too much as booked on a deal but room was dark and dingey. We were woken up at 6.15 with heavy bass music and a lot of talking and yelling. This wasn't any fault of the staff or because of the accomodation, but because there was a school staying at the same place. Overall good, convenient place.

Accomodation was okay but certainly nothing special. We had booked a studio room but it was extremely small and pokey. Very basic facilities in the room. No fridge of any kind. The restaurant looked okay but we chose not to eat there. Parking was easy- out the front. Okay if you’re on a tight budget 😞
