    The location itself was great, a super close walk to Oh Canada eh Dinner show. The restaurant was located within 500 metres. We had a comfortable bedroom.

    Appreciated our 4 nights stay. The staff team was very amiable and amicable at any time. Our neat room had views over mountain. There was comfy bed, an electric kettle, a microwave, and an electronic key card. The location was stunning and great, super on top of everything, in the beautiful area. Tried some takeout specials at Lakeport Fish & chips, luckily it was at a moderate distance from the venue.

    My second stay at this amazing place was mind-blowing! The bedrooms were super comfortable and tidy with everything you need. The shared kitchen area had all the necessary appliances to cook and make coffee. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel at home. The refreshing pool was a jaw-dropping spot to relax while listening to monkeys. The beautiful sunsets were the cherry on top. Can't wait to come back!
