Its a super beautiful place and the staff They do their best with the tools provided by the administration of the place. Unfortunately who apparently do a terrible job together with pages like Expedia and just throw the problem at each other without solving anything. I had reserved a beautiful cabin to attend an event in the place, on the page it appeared available but after paying the reservation they told me that they did not have anything available because there would be an event (which I attended -.-') they did not want me They returned my money and in exchange they sent me to a room in their hotel 5 miles or more away, can you believe it? It's a shame that the place is beautiful and they ruin it so easily without giving explanations or at least an apology.

It took over an hour to finally get there. No signs, no maps and to my surprise the cabin had only ONE actual bedroom and 4 individual-tiny beds. Lots of leaking water when taking a shower.

I was disappointed in our overall experience was not a pleasant one. The location is very hard to find not to mention the speed bumps are horrible. The cabin itself gets very cold due to the lack of insulation. Even after running the chimney for hours. There is no pool, or any type of food near by because the in-house restaurant closes at 5:00. To me, this place needs a lot of work before it’s ready to service. On the positive side, the lake is absolutely beautiful.

Había inexactitud en la información de los miembros del staff respecto a mi reserva con mascota, pero cuando se resolvieron, todo estuvo bien, muy tranquilo y cómodo. La salida fue un poco tardado porque demoraron en revisar la habitación y sentí que era por la mascota, aunque no tuvimos temas con su estadía :)

Te dicen que el hotel es pet friendly pero en el restaurante te piden que dejes amarrada a tu mascota afuera! Deberían de tener un área en el restaurante especial para mascotas. Además, los mismos empleados te informan mal sobre los servicios que ofrecen. Yo necesitaba internet para trabajar y me dijeron que podía trabajar en el restaurante y en el restaurante me dijeron que no! El internet que te dan es únicamente para un dispositivo a la vez, aunque te quedes en un cuarto con 4 personas. Dicen que el horario del restaurante es hasta las 6 pm y a las 5 dejan de querer servirte. Pedimos hielo en la recepción y nos dijeron primero que a partir de las 5pm (que es cuando ya todos los empleados se van del hotel) y después que no se podía que nos llevaran hielo. Encontrar a una persona en la recepción es un problema.. Llegué a hacer check-in y la persona que nos recibió SUPER grosera.. le dije que iba a hacer check-in y me contestó de mala manera que cuál era mi número de habitación...CUANDO NO TENÍA PORQUE IBA A HACER CHECK-IN APENAS! Sinceramente yo JAMAS volvería a este lugar, ni siquiera puedes hacer actividades para ver el atardecer NI NADA. Por ese precio o un poquito más puedes quedarte en un Airbnb mucho mejor.

El Mejor lugar

El lugar es excelente, un espacio tranquilo y con muy bonita vista. Uno de los mejores lugares a los que he ido en plan de naturaleza. 100% Recomendable. El Restaurante al pie del lago muy rico y buenos precios. Las actividades que tienen, hay para todos los gustos. Tirolesa, Remo Cayac, Remo Lancha, Paseo en cuatrimoto etc. Excelente lugar para pasar un buen fin de semana.
