Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the hotel felt like having my own little cottage overlooking Lake Brosseau. The rooms were fully equipped for simple self-catering, and the hotel offered various priced eateries. The service from the staff was wonderful and accommodating, making my stay pleasant. The location was surrounded by families with younger children, and the relaxed atmosphere was inviting. Although the dining experience wasn't anything special, the overall stay was enjoyable.
The hotel offers comfortable yet slightly rustic and dated rooms in a large accessible space. The service ensured our short stay was enjoyable, especially for the kids. The location is fantastic, with beautiful views of lake Rosseau, and facilities like the games room, bar, and pool table add to the charm. However, the dining experience could be improved with better maintenance and replenishment of items during service.
The hotel offers cozy rooms perfect for family stays, with thoughtful birthday surprises for the kids. The staff is incredibly helpful and involved in guests' activities, making the experience even more enjoyable. The breathtaking views of Lake Rosseau add to the beauty of the location, offering an array of water-based activities. The dining experience could use some improvement, especially during low season, but overall, the facilities are top-notch.
