Everything we needed!
Great view of the lake. Easy parking. Nice comfortable bed. Decent couch that was also comfortable. Good spa bath in bathroom. Shower was terrible, kept going ice cold, then burning hot every 10seconds. Not sure if neighbouring room using their water affects it or not but needs to be sorted. Great location.
