I liked the environment, and the nice atmosphere of the restaurant. The food was very good. But what I did not like sis that the chalet was a little bit old and the rooms had only small windows, and were not facing the most interesting scene which is the lake.

Laugh or cry...
This was not the experience we were expecting for an almost $400 per night hotel. 1) Bed sheets were full of hair (clearly not changed). When we asked reception to clean the room, they told us there was anyone available and gave us clean sheets for us to change. 2) Food quality was ok but overpriced. Service was really slow, it took us 1h to get the kids food. 3) Pool: Drunk teenagers in the pool, unsupervised young kids playing in the steam sauna, and cold pool. We believe this were people not staying at the hotel but that had payed a fee for the pool 4) Spa: very mediocre massage. Spa is beside the pool so impossible to relax even at 10am in the morning 5) Majority of included activities closed (skating and cross country ski) but payed activities open (dog sled and ice fishing). Difficult to understand how there is snow for dog sledding but not enough to trace the cross country skiing paths. 5) Laugh or cry: no more hot water in the shower the last day....
Fantastic place to get away and relax in nature! Super beautiful location, lots of options for activities from hiking to canoeing to pedal boats to the pool/sauna. We appreciated the friendly staff and the room was very comfy!
I should've planned ahead and booked spa services in advance, because the massages were already fully booked when we arrived but that's definitely on me.
Restaurant serves great food, vegetarians may want to bring some extra provisions since options are available but limited to one dinner entree when we were there. If you want variety and are staying a few days, just a heads up. :)
Will definitely be back someday--gorgeous lakes and beautiful surroundings!
Site exceptionnel
Nourriture de qualité mais un peu cher
Service de très professionnel
Je recommande fortement cet endroit

Nous avons passé 2 jours dans l'Auberge (qui n a plus d Auberge que son nom). Rien a dire sur la qualite de l hebergement (hormis la luminosité des chambres) mais 2 points noirs : 1/ la restauration : c est l'usine et beaucoup de plats semblent congelés. Repas du soir et PDJ beaucoup trop cher par rapport a la qualite des produits. 2/ la randonnee a motoneige : elle pourrait etre magnifique au vu des decors naturels mais malheureusement tres fade. 4 arrets "pipi et cigarettes" pendant cette balade de 4h, aucun arret point de vue, aucune explication ou description de la part du guide...une activité qui doit vous donner de l'adrenaline et qui m'a endormi...Bref, une jolie usine a touristes.
Mooi hotel in prachtige natuur. Lekkere keuken. Fijn meer voor kanovaren en mooie wandelingen.

Sehr abgelegen, schön am See gelegen.
Freizeitangebot eher für Familien mit Kinder, Leihräder nur für Kinder, seit Monaten Bären aus klimatischen Gründen weggezogen, trotzdem werden überall Bärenführungen erwähnt.
Gästetoilette EG Herren linke Toilettentür defekt, keine Absperrmöglichkeit.
Frühstück: muffige Internatsqualität,
Warmhaltevorrichtingen zu heiß eingestellt, typisches amerikanisches Pappebrot, keine andere Frühstücksmöglichkeit im weiteren Umfeld.
Abendessen sehr gut, Bedienung Abendessen erster Abend mit
3 Pers. Es werden nie alle Teller, nur ein Teil abgeräumt , bestellter Wein nicht gebracht, aber verrechnet, Personal sehr bemüht, aber Aufgabe nur bedingt gewachsen.
Zweiter Abend sehr versierter Kellner.
Zimmerschlüssel Briefenkastengrösse unhandlich, unzeitgemäß.
Bad: keine Möglichkeit nasses Handtuch aufzuhängen.
Nur allgemeine Beleuchtung, aber keine vernünftige Beleuchtung zum Lesen im Bett.
Fitness nur Laufbänder, dann besser gar nicht hinstellen, nur zugänglich über warmfeuchtes Schwimmbad.
Sehr speziell, aber kein Grund auf einer Kanadareise hier auch nur einen Tag zu verbringen und vor allem viele Stunden für An- und Abreise zu verbringen.
