    Fantastic location for family and dogs

    Fantastic location tucked up against beautiful lakes.

    The cabins were charming and rustic as expected, unfortunately the bed was slumpy and uncomfortable for us.

    Moet 30 jaar geleden top geweest zijn, nu tijd voor een grondige renovatie

    Mooie ligging op wandelafstand van verschillende meren. Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel aan de receptie.

    Accommodatie dient dringend gerenoveerd te worden. Zowel de binnen als buitenkant. Wij zaten in een deluxe huisje maar was weinig luxe aan. Historisch wil niet zeggen dat er niet gepoetst moet worden of dat je alles kan laten verouderen zonder vervanging.

    1 Star – Ruined Family Vacation & Zero Accountability From Management We drove 7+ hours with our family and child for a short, two-day mountain getaway. Let me be clear: I am not high-maintenance. I am completely fine sleeping in a tent. But when you pay for a cabin for a tight family vacation, getting basic sleep without being blasted by industrial machinery is a minimum expectation. Instead, this stay turned into a total disaster. We originally booked a simple Historical Cabin, but upon arrival, the front desk gave us an unsolicited "upgrade" to Cabin #50. That "upgrade" was right next to the kitchen exhaust and the maintenance utility building. Here is how our night went: * Evening: The kitchen exhaust fan rattled loudly right outside our cabin. Staff promised it would turn off at 8:00 PM; it roared until 9:15 PM. * 3:00 AM: An industrial generator right outside our bedroom window suddenly fired up. The deafening vibration woke up our entire family. It ran for over an hour, making sleep impossible even with all windows sealed shut. * 6:00 AM: Just as we managed to drift back to sleep, the kitchen exhaust kicked back on (two hours earlier than front desk claimed). We woke up with severe headaches and exhaustion. Worse, half of our second day was completely wasted: we had to pack up all our luggage, check out, wait until 2:00 PM for another cabin to open up, and unpack all over again. While the second cabin was quiet and comfortable, that is what we should have been given from minute one. Relocating a guest at 2:00 PM the next afternoon does not magically undo a sleepless night, nor does it give back a lost day of a two-day trip. To make matters worse, I sent a formal, polite email to management over a week ago giving them an opportunity to take accountability and address the issue. They completely ghosted us. No reply, no apology, and zero attempt to make things right.
