Not again.
Cons:

I requested first floor room because of a painful back. Our room was on the second floor. Coffee maker did not work. Pillows were awful.

The facility was clean, the staff was helpful, and the location was perfect
Pros:

Location and view

Cons:

Pricey for out of season. I I think the hockey tournament Can-Am influenced the high price.

Schönes Hotel direkt am See
Pros:

Zentrale Lage, trotzdem ruhig und direkt am See gelegen. Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber. Der Online-Check-Inn hat prima funktioniert. Am Telefon wurde uns freundlich weitergeholfen

It was not what I expected from a deluxe room and was uncomfortable.
Pros:

Bath towels and wash clothes. Room was clean even though we found a dirty fork in the refrigerator.

Cons:

Bed was horrible and sunk. Could not walk on the one side of the bed as it was too close to the wall. Only one bedside table. Lighting was terrible. Too hot in the room. Table could barely fit one person let along two. Hard to get in refrigerator where it was at.

Single mom with son felt safe. Lots of on-site activities. Great escape to the lake.
Pros:

The location was great. As a single parent, I felt safe. Direct lake access with use of kayaks and paddleboards. Fire pits to roast marshmallows, grills, pool, dock to enjoy sunrise / sunset, feed the ducks. Free parking and Wi-Fi, comfortable beds.

Cons:

Controlled temps and narrow parking spots

Cons:

There’s was only two small lamps for lights in the room and the bed was hard and uncomfortable

Pleasant
Pros:

Location nice by the lake and enjoyed the boats and fire pit.

Cons:

Not really a hotel - we booked it as it had a kitchen but this was't very well equipped e.g. No cooking utensils and only 2 plates and bowls for 3 people.

Pros:

The waterfront location was super nice. Went paddle boarding and did a bonfire one night. The pup loved the space to play. They answered my calls with questions and issues in a very timely manner. All the staff that was around was super friendly.
