We came in late, they had an envelope with a key ready, easy check in, I would say. Lovely room, clean, beautiful view. We just caught a gorgeous sunset over Crystal Lake. Morning was also very peaceful. Gorgeous property. I can see it being a favorite spot for many to enjoy.

This resort was perfect for a little Up North pit stop. We were scheduled for 2 nights but when we had an issue at our Air BNB we were able to get in for a 3rd! The owner was amazingly sweet & accommodating! Kelly at the front desk & the 2 gals in house keeping were super friendly too! Great location & loved the private area by on the lake, very peaceful! My only suggestion would be to get better pillows. The pillows were too thin & not comfortable. Sleeping in a foreign bed is hard enough but hotel pillows always make a huge difference.
