The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We were in brown bear and the window looking out on the street was gorgeous for looking at the fall colors and people walking by. It’s location is ideal to walking everywhere.

Incredible bargain, right in the Village! Very large and comfortable- I wish we could have stayed for a month. Just walk outside and you're surrounded by shops, restaurants, a local coffee house; even a little market right across the street.

Carpet was wet all day and nite . Was not offered a new room. I was forced to stay and wear shoes though out my stay . Staff did not accommodate for inconvenience stating “you used room” and you pay for stay . Not able to peak to someone in person or phone . All communication was by email. Staff could care less !

Fun Stay

Highly recommend the village in, it’s centrally located in the village where all of the shops and restaurants are. It’s also about a 5 minute walk from the lake.
