5/5 - Excellent
Jennifer
Get there early, parking is limited, there are a few porta-potties in the parking area, but none down the hill. Be prepared for a hike back up the hill. Take a blanket and have a picnic, and bring sincscreen.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (64 reviews)
The apartment has a good view. Pleasant. The mattresses are very soft compared to those in most hotels. The lock up garage can comfortably park a small car, and it has just enough space for a medium sized car. Overall good. Thank you.

9.8/10 Exceptional! (28 reviews)
The Princess Suite was beautiful! The view of the lake and mountains from the balcony was breathtaking. The private hot tub and outdoor fireplace were amazing. The complimentary breakfast was delicious as well as the complimentary happy hour drinks. My husband and I loved staying here to end our honeymoon!
