This property is in poor repair, not clean, and not well marked. There are many things about it that are unsafe Owner was friendly when we arrived, and made a recommendation for dinner that turned out to be a great experience.

The picture of the lake on the front page of the property listing is deceiving. The property needs lots of improvements. The stairs to my room under the eves were very narrow. I had difficulty hauling my carry-on to the room. The furniture was old. The linen and the towels were white at some point. They were more grayish.

Intimité violée

Nous avons vécu une expérience TERRIBLE en ces lieux: Nous sommes un couple en général très tolérant et très compréhensif face à plusieurs situations... Mais celle-ci ne passe totalement pas. J'ai réservé à l'aide du service de Hotel.com pour obtenir une nuit romantique au chalet avec ma copine. Lors de notre arrivé, le lave-vaisselle n'était pas fomctionnel et j'ai appelé pour en aviser. La dame (Jeanne) était courtoise et nous a avisé que ces "jeunes" passeraient pour régler le problème le temps nous allions à l'épicerie... Au retour le lave-vaisselle n'était toujours pas fonctionnel mais on s'est dit que ce n'était pas la fin du monde. Par contre à 22:15 du 7 octobre 2024 la porte s'ouvrit subitement, un homme visiblement en colère ouvre la porte agressivement pour réclamer le chalet lorsque nous étions à moitié nu sur place, nous allions nous coucher à se moment. J'ai tenté à deux reprises d'appeler les hôtes pour comprendre la situation, j'ai envoyé un message via l'application et aussi un message texte. Puisque j'avais bu de l'alcool et qu'il était tard c'était mieux pour nous de rester sur place mais ma copine en panique voulait quitter mais sans réponse de la part des hôtes. Ma copine et moi avions eu de la.difficulté à dormir pour le restant de la nuit. Jeanne nous a refusé un dédommagement, nous accusant de mauvaise foi et que c'était seulement la faute du monsieur malgré qu'elle a fait un double booking, elle ne s'est aucunement mit à notre place.

Surprenant : lit suspendu au plafond, baignoire spa dans la chambre, hamac. Mais au final génial ! Nous avons super bien dormi. Une belle terrasse pour profiter de la vue sur le lac car nous sommes en étage avec un escalier qui épouse l’arbre.

Le chalet panoramique est très beau avec une cuisine moderne et tout équipée. Dans ce chalet il y a deux chambres avec lit double et deux autres styles de divan-lit dans le salon. Il y a également une troisième chambre à part accessible par le balcon qui a sa propre salle de bain et une laveuse et sécheuse fort appréciée. Il y a un joli petit quai pour regarder les enfants se baigner dans le lac. Il y a TV et wifi également. Mes enfants, ma femme et moi-même avons bien aimé. Tellement que nous avons demandé à rester une troisième journée. Le lac est magnifique et il y a plein d’activités à faire dans la région.

Magnifique vue sur le lac

Très beau séjour dans ce magnifique gîte, nous avons eu une chambre plus grande, (avec vue magnifique) que celle prévue initialement. Le propriétaire est très gentil, au petit soin pour nous ! Dommage qu’il n’y ait pas de micro-ondes comme indiqué dans les équipements.
