All rooms in the accommodation are fitted with a flat-screen TV and a hairdryer. The cabins were clean and well equipped. Each cabin has a beautiful water view and a propane fire pit. It was too cold during our visit, but I could imagine sitting on the deck with a fire going, taking in the beautiful view. Location is close to good hiking. Food and service at the Pub at the location is excellent!
