Unfortunately, the listing said there was a hot tub under "popular amenities", and there wasn't one. And the chairs in the dining room are not suitable for young children. But otherwise it was great. Canoeing on the river, bonfires with marshmallows, grilled food, comfortable beds... all wonderful. We had nine adults and two young kids who had an amazing weekend. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b8e78a45-b45b-4232-8b80-dea9ab95e50f-1757553470076.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cad59415-e504-4607-bb94-2400b49fd2e3-1757553470892.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Denise R.
