"stayed in the lodge (room #6) as the cottages were all booked. the room was nice and comfortable with a huge balcony. we had dinner at the onsite restaurant and the food was really good. also the fact you could leave your vehicle parked at the hotel and walk down to main street was a huge plus because driving around and trying to find parking on the streets was a mess."
