Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wayne B. 2 Oct 2024 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Communication #### Great location and views but dated The home dates to the 1970s and shows every year of its vintage. The decorations, furnishings and appliances are similarly aged, but mostly functional, aside from the quirky doors and power circuitry that regularly trips the safety switches in the well concealed switch board. There's a morning aroma of antique shop that can be dissipated a little with ventilation. The house is perched on a steep slope overlooking the lake. The space is good, the location is great and the balcony and views are outstanding. Whether these can compensate for the property's shortcomings is a matter of personal taste and expectations. For our family of six, probably not. ##### Wayne B.

Spacious and comfortable. The conservatory was warm in the sun and wonderful in the late afternoon and early evening. Although the house has the potential to be cold, there are many heating options with the heat pump, wood fire and individual heaters, plus electric blankets. Superb location overlooking the lake, and an easy walk to n centre.
