Poor accommodation
The propery was dated and in disrepair, mold on shower curtain, dirty carpets and the included breakfast was 8km away at a decapitated golf course...way overpriced for the service we recieved.

Good one night stop over location en route from Whistler to Jasper. Unfortunately the hotel has a policy that you must wash your own dishes etc otherwise they will charge you for not doing so. This would of course not be a problem, except the hotel room had no plugs for the sink, therefore you could not fill a bowl for washing up.
Additionally kitchen knives were left in floor height cupboards which was very dangerous for our one year old, luckily we checked the cupboards and discovered this, but had we not, there could have been a very nasty accident.

Rooms were comfy and clean. Sliding door that opened right out to a large grass area over looking the lake. Check in was quick and easy and parking right outside our room door. Would book here again if travelling through.

Would come again..
An ice bucket would better than flowery scented garbage bag. The free breakfast was a ways away, okay, not the best. The coffee maker in the room was a disaster, and the tv..we never did get it to work..Nice job on the Renos,

Love the location at lakeside. The views were somewhat spoilt by the construction site between the lake and the hotel, but still a nice location. The family room was excellent, it has everything you need. Some of the furniture's are a bit dated and tired, but it was cosy and clean.

Not as advertised
Definitely not close to the lake as advertised. When we asked how to get there, the front desk said it's a 20 minute walk through the woods or 10 minutes down the road.
Rooms were very poorly renovated with holes in the vanity's where taps should be and towel bars in weird places. Definitely a lipstick reno. The bed was comfy but that was probably the only perk.

Two night stay with breakfast. Reno’s were a work in progress as projects were not competed but tolerable. Fridge was not working so was moved to another room which still had deficiencies but doable.
Breakfast is at another property which was @the golf coarse app 7 min drive down the hwy. Food was good but in short supply as they seemed to have to cook whenever a few people entered.
All in all I give the group who are trying to make this project a success a thank you for your enthusiasm and your smiles.

Air conditioner didn't work, and buzzed loudly when turned on. Had to broil in the dirty room, and got no sleep. Won't be back, ever.
