Property in excellent location. I stayed there around 20 years ago also was looking forward to being back. Was disappointed with this visit and would not stay again. Maintenance shocking(broken chairs, toilet not flushing, carpet stretched with waves creating trip hazards just to name a few).

Great location on the flat, no hills to climb and only a short stroll from town, no issues walking home late at night as a family or lone female. Good lake view and very spacious accommodation with all amenities. Drove past the other hotels and apartments we had initially considered and at $50-100 per night's difference in price, the extra spend was more than worth it, would definitely stay here again.

We were friends traveling together and loved the spacious apartment with several balconies over looking the lake. The views were amazing. It was a quick 5 minute walk to the center of town. The only complaint we had was that the WIFI was barely usable as we were the furthest away from the office providing it.

The images online were not representative of the properly which actually the lodges not lakefront apartments - it is in poor condition. Carpets a trip hazard. Leaking water through light fittings. No cooling in bedrooms. Slip hazard bathroom tiles. Quilt covers dusty. Would not recommend for the outrageous price - very disappointing property

Very old and tired property. Shouldn't be classified as an apartment. It's completely not the same as per advertised. The front desk person completely not concern about my complain regarding the apartment. Completely dishonest for the whole thing. Rooms can't be lock. Some handles completely pull out. Rooms smelly. Construction happening next door and downstairs. It's totally unsafe for residents. Will never booked with Expedia again or stay at this awful place again.

Building condition was poor, the main ranch door windows had 2-3cm gaps around the whole frame. Sliders doors to balcony could not open and it looked like previous renters had used the side window to access the balcony. and the window hinges were also broken. This resulting window not able to open that well. The appartment is very tired and in need of a refit. would not stay there in the future.

The location and the view were wonderful. The bathroom was great. Kitchen needs a bit of tlc. Our dishwasher didn’t work and the supplies of crockery and cultery were pretty minimal. Fresh towels were delivered daily which seemed a little excessive, especially given the cleaning left a bit to be desired.
