“The location is spectacular. I got up in the middle of the night to use the toilet. I was rewarded with a magical starlit sky. The kitchen facilities are immaculate. My cabin was super warm....they must be very well-insulated. I turned on the heat...”

“Great location for those willing to get around the lake and do not want to pay that much. It is good for solo travellers or for small groups without kids. Either by car or by walking is very accessible”
