Excellent property, beautiful place, spa is amazing. Hotel bar was great. My only complaints are the showerheads spray all over the place and it’s such a sharp stream that it really doesn’t make it easy to wash. And the toilet paper, just cause it says two ply Angel Soft sorry that version of toilet paper is not soft. View of the harbor was nice

The room was really clean, the bed was soft and comfortable, we had everything we needed and it is located in a really cool area- I was hesitant about not staying in Lake Geneva, however, I actually thing this area is even better- a chill lake vibe with a great cafe, adorable little bar and ice cream shop that you can walk to. There is a public beach right across the street and an amazing marina right in the backyard. The bar and restaurant look great too.
