The location and view from this place is amazing, very beautiful aspect. We loved sitting on the bench and the sofa indoors and watching the lake, mountains and clouds. The bathtub is huge and the hot water was reliable. Not being able to adjust the water temperature from the inside of the shower took some getting used to. Not a good place for wifi reception.Unfortunately, this place just didn't feel welcoming. You must park between the garage and shed and pull your suitcase around the side of the house across grass to access the suite. There was no milk in the fridge and minimal pantry essentials. Not being within walking distance from town, this was a little disappointing to have no supplies. There was minimal crockery and some of it still had the op-shop price tag so obviously hadn't been washed before going into the drawer. Oddly, no bedside tables on either side of the queen bed. The suite is attached to the main home, although the residents were absent during our stay.
