Lake View Cabin Was Misleading
Pros:

Location was good. Close to the town center. Staff was good. He turned on the heater before we arrived and explained things clearly.

Cons:

Booked the Lake View cabin and even left a note with my booking asking if we could please have a cabin with a good lake view. Unfortunately, the only glimpse of the lake was a small section visible from the balcony. I messaged to ask if there had been a mistake, but never received a reply. Calling this a “Lake View” cabin feels quite misleading, and the lack of communication was very disappointing.
