Had a great room with view over the Great Lake’. Bathroom had a rain shower with good pressure. Need to book a table for dinner even though you’re staying there - locals frequent as well. Food good, the mains were big and hearty. Service friendly. Wallaby’s visit in the evenings.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Booked king deluxe room which was very small, no cupboard to hang clothes, dinner was available from 6pm until 9.30pm yet we arrived at 7.15pm to be told kitchen is closing. They did however take our order but while sitting there having dinner staff were vacuuming and putting chairs on tables which made us feel uncomfortable and rushed our dinner. Room cost $320 overnight which is ridiculously overpriced for what you get.

The property is as expected, when you have limited options you're going to get bare basics. The shared facilities do the job, they're maintained and kept clean. The room I had was cozy yet spacious enough, the bed comfortably and warm, very warm. The room decor is lodge like and feels welcoming. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall, good stay and beautiful area to explore. The food at the hotel is Absolutely TOP NOTCH! They do a phenomenal job there with meals.
