Quarterdeck Resort & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay here! The VIEW IS INCREDIBLE! Staff was accommodating to our family and our dog! We ended up staying in the water a little later than expected so we were unable to get dinner at the restaurant, but the bartender offered us some beautiful salads, Mac and cheese for the kids, and cheesecake! It was very reasonably priced. We rented e-bikes and road on the trail, we saw a bear! It was pretty crazy. Very friendly staff. We will definitely be back!"
