“It's shame the experience we had as this is our 3rd time staying at this lodge but due to the following we won't be staying again: - The cleanliness was very poor.”

There were stains on the carpet/ sofa. The sofa smell absolutely awful. A bad feet smell, felt very uncomfortable sitting on it. - The carpets had not been hoovered so I had to hoover the whole lodge the day we arrived - The bedrooms smelt of dirt and dust, particularly around the bedside tables where it's not been cleaned properly. - It's clean on a surface level but it really needs a deep clean - The fridge didn't work properly. Even on max setting the butter was soft when we pulled it out ...

Even on max setting the butter was soft when we pulled it out. Everything was not chilled so we were worried about the food we bought paticularly the meat/ milk. As I said its a shame as the view is stunning but for over £300 per night we expect the place to be clean and not smell. We won't be returning to this lodge next year.

“Fantastic lodge for location, views, comfy, clean.”

Would definitely return. One and small downside is my husband had to work on the odd occasion and the wifi wasn’t good at all. This would be a site problem I’d think.

“What a beautiful view, don’t think there could be a better spot in the Lake ...”

What a beautiful view, don’t think there could be a better spot in the Lake District, and lodge was very comfortable and well kept

Paul April 2024

“The stay was spoilt somewhat by the boiler not working on arrival Monday afternoon.”

It was not fixed until 24 hours later. The temperature in the lodge was freezing and this was coupled with no hot water etc. The boiler then went again on Thursday but at least this time it was fixed within a few hours of it being reported

- Paul, April 2024

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We were sorry to hear of the issues that you experienced with the boiler. We will be looking into the issue with our Property Services Team. Thank you- The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Property Owner

“Our visit was good but was marred by the electricity cut caused by the toaster ...”

Our visit was good but was marred by the electricity cut caused by the toaster and it took over 4 hours for somebody to fix it which was an external breaker switch apparently, while we were cold trying to keep warm with blankets

- Neville, March 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately there was a delay in returning your initial message regarding the electricity as the contact details we were provided were incorrect. Guests are always welcome to continue with their day and leave the keys in the key safe in order for workmen to attend and not hold guests up. We are glad that the rest of your visit was good.

“This lodge is in a beautiful location over looking the lake, plenty of kitchen utensils, pans etc.”

The bedrooms are quite small, but it is only 2 bedroom, unfortunately the main bedroom curtains had mould on them, this could be caused by the excessive wet weather they are currently experiencing. Our biggest dilemma where the stone steps, no hand rail on, and quite deep, and being disabled with disc trouble and with a walking stick, found them very difficult to get up and down, so that is a big no no for us, other than that to you haven’t go a disability then the lodge is perfect.

- Michael, December 2023

Thank you very much for your wonderful score and review. The curtains are being cleaned. Unfortunately the concrete stairs fall under the responsibility of Fallbarrow..we will again speak with them Property Owner
Peter December 2023

“Lovely views of the Lake, Lodge was spotlessly clean, in a quiet position and ideal for what we wanted .”

We would recommend and hope to stay again in the future. The site itself is ideally situated with Bowness only a short walk away.

- Peter, December 2023
Andrew October 2023

“The accommodation is exactly like the photos.”

Superb location probably the best on the park for views as is right by the lake. The pub/restaurant and shop are a 5 minute walk from the lodge. This is a very clean and tidy lodge/park and has outstanding views. I would highly recommend this place! 10/10

- Andrew, October 2023

Catherine July 2023

“We had a great time for my 70th birthday.”

The place was very comfortable and very clean it had everything we needed. The only thing we found difficult was the steps to go to lodge they didn't have a rail. It would be helpful for us older people otherwise it was perfect

- Catherine, July 2023
Mark June 2023

“Hi , we could not connect the TV to the internet so no Netflix etc, some instruction's may be possible ?”

The outside furniture may need improvement as one of the rockers had a loose leg . On the the plus side, views fabulous ,a comfortable way to watch the wild life, spotlessly clean , very thing else we needed.

“Could not fault the Lodge at all, it has absolutely everything you would want in a self catering accommodation.”

It was really clean and we felt comfortable as soon as we entered. The view from the lodge is like something on a landscape painting. Great break.

Richard April 2023

“Had a lovely time staying in Shoreside Lodge.”

Fallbarrow Park is situated in a superb location, within easy walking distance of Barrow-in-Furness town centre, and the lodge location was about as good as it gets with superb views over Lake Windermere. It was comfortable and clean, and parking was easily accessible and close by. Unfortunately the lodge is let down by the condition of appliances. The gas oven doesn't stay lit and the boiler has leaks which caused it to shut down due to low pressure on the last night of our stay. I've seen the oven issue mentioned in other reviews, so this isn't an isolated incident. Lake District Lodge Holidays refused any kind of refund because I didn't call in time for them to address the problems. I did call, but the office was closed. There is an emergency number, but we'd been out all day and just wanted to eat, not wait in for a maintenance person to turn up. We'd bought food to cook but had to throw that away and eat out instead. I just wanted recompense for the extra cost incurred, but they refused. So yeh, they got me on a technicality, which is just bad customer service and the difference between me booking with them again and not booking with them again, just for the sake of a few quid. Very poor service.

- Richard, April 2023
Barry March 2023

“Cannot fault the lodge.”

Access is via a few bankside steps (mentioned in the listing). As pensioners we would have found a handrail useful.

“I would like to give our holiday ten stars and ten stars for our lodge the lodge ...”

I would like to give our holiday ten stars and ten stars for our lodge the lodge was excellent and very cosy and the view and location was excellent,my only complaint won't be I wished we had booked for 2 weeks instead of one,we didn't want to leave,we will definitely be booking the same logged again for next year

Faye January 2023

“No electricity in the lodge when we arrived and had to call the helpline provided who directed us to reception which was closed.”

We found the Fallbarrow Park maintenance man who kindly helped us. The lodge was lovely and clean with stunning views over the lake although smaller than we expected. Kitchen layout difficult to work with eg pots and pans difficult to access, we had to go on our hands and knees to reach them deep into an awkward cupboard. Oven and grill very poor and we gave up trying to use which was a problem as we were there for 7 days so maybe they should be replaced? Beds were comfy and we slept well. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed our time in Fallbarrow Park.

- Faye, January 2023
Martin January 2023

“Beautiful lodge with a stunning location overlooking the lake.”

Well furnished. I would definitely return. Negatives- Tall guests are advised to mind their head on the cooker hood, needs a few larger mugs and main bedroom smelled a bit dank.

- Martin, January 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Shoreside Lodge. We will ask our Housekeeping and Maintenance teams to look into the smell in the main bedroom. We hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner

Baldeep November 2022

“Was a stunning location, loved the interior esp the fireplace was really cozy.”

The info pack and board games was a nice touch. The facilities of the park site as well as the views couldn't have been better. The only things I feel could be improved on was could have done with some air freshners as feel was a bit stale. The smaller second bedroom could be cleaned a bit more in depth. But I would strongly recommend that in the smaller room the bed next to the wall to have a new mattress, it was sinking a lot in the middle and you could start to feel the springs poking through - I do think this needs to be looked at as no matter how beautiful and lovely the place is when you don't have a good nights sleep it can affect you returning/ enjoying the place. If larger mugs were provided for tea/ coffee. The current mugs were tiny and would only really be half a mug of tea. (MASSIVE teas drinkers here) The facilities and equipment in the kitchen (bar the mugs) were excellent loved there was a decent fridge freezer. The dishes were beautiful! The location was so handy. To walk to Windermere town to explore was approx 2-3 mins. Am happy to say we have already re-booked and will be taking our kids along this time so really hoping the mattress is replaced for them. Can't wait for our next stay and possibly become our new yearly place to visit as we visit the Lakes once a year. I have already recommended this place to friends and I don't do that lightly. Thank you so much for a lovely stay :)

- Baldeep, November 2022

Thank you for your kind feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Shoreside, and that you enjoyed the views. We will pass on your comments regarding the cleanliness of the lodge, to our Housekeeping team who will ensure that our high standards continue to be met. We are delighted that you have already booked your next visit. We wanted to update you . We have now purchased 2 new ( medium/firm )mattresses for the small bedroom.. We have also updated the larger bathroom last week. Thank you again for your feedback and we wish you a lovely stay when you return. Property Owner
Christopher October 2022

“Hi great lodge we enjoyed our stay but the main shower in the main bathroom needs replacing as its constantly on hot on the mixer temp unable to turn the temp down.”

We had to use the other shower in the ensuite instead. Also the oven is really slow to cook food and probably needs upgrading/replacing. Apart from that we had a great time and enjoyed the lodge and location.

- Christopher, October 2022

Many thanks for taking the time to submit your valued feedback. We are delighted to hear that you had a great time and enjoyed your stay in Shoreside. We are sorry to hear of the inconvenience caused through problems with the shower and will investigate this further. We will also check the oven with a view to replacing this item, if necessary. We very much look forward to welcoming you back should you decide to visit again in the future. Property Owner

“Excellent Lodge !”

! We very much enjoyed our stay at Shoreside Lodge at the end of September. It was very comfortable and cosy, everything was clean and well looked after. The outside seating was very good ( husband loved the rocker chairs ). Being so close to the waterside was amazing !! The onsite facilities at Fallbarrow are also excellent, The Willows Restaurant and Deli Cafe / Shop provide top quality food etc with friendly service. We will happily return to this lodge when possible

Jane September 2022

“Location and view from Lodge cannot be beaten on Fallbarrow.”

A couple of niggles were, cups were badly stained, I had to go and buy mugs for our use. Also railings and glass on decking and balcony needs a deep clean, and outside lights need cleaned as they were full of dead flies and covered with cobwebs.

- Jane, September 2022

Cheryl August 2022

“Lodge is in a great location, with superb views over the Lake.”

Comfortable lodge, but does require some upgrading in areas. Cleanliness of lodge itself was below standard and overpriced for what was provided.

Steven July 2022

“Fabulous lodge in prime location overlooking the lake.”

The lodge itself was clean, tidy and well maintained when we arrived. We has a slight smell of gas coming from the boiler within the first 24 hrs, however, when we called reception about this, action was very prompt and efficient. Harry from maintenance went above and beyond by first solving this problem, (small leak in feeder pipe) and then sweeping cobwebs from the decking and removing all the fallen leaves. Excellent service and lovely man.

- Steven, July 2022

Many thanks for taking the time to provide your valued feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and that we were able to resolve the problem you encountered, straight away. We will pass your kind comments on to Harry, he will be pleased to hear how happy you were with his attention to detail and friendly manner.

Stephen June 2022

“The lights in the en-suite bathroom went off after about 20 seconds and couldn't get them to work.”

The fridge doesn't seem to work properly and although appears to stay chilled, it didn't get cold. Some of the food was ruined, not a huge problem as we didn't have a lot as we were only there 3 days, but if you shopped for a week.... Great view from the decking. Need more chairs for outside as there is only 2 comfy chairs (that were excellent). There's a big decked area at the side where you could put a table and chairs?

- Stephen, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the view from Shoreside Lodge We are sorry that you had a problem with the fridge and lights in the ensuite bathroom.

Sandra Anita June 2022

“I would like to thank the owner very much for putting himself out to bring the spare key to us.”

Also to thank the reception and maintenance staff for their assistance. As we were not using main door, I want to let owner know I put down more mats on the floor & I brought my own covers for the settees to protect them too! (I always do this anyway as I like to respect other peoples property). I enjoyed staying at this lodge, it was ideal. I love people & bird watching as I am not very mobile. I am hopefully looking forward to going again to this lodge. Thank you again. Anita

Keith May 2022

“Found the lodge a little tired .”

Although the views are magnificent and the beds really comfy, the corner of one sofa needs restringing and the little things are below what we expected paying such a significant amount . For example the towels were grey and small , well worn , cheap loo paper and the glasses past their best . We have stayed at Fallbarrow on numerous occasions and thought by paying for a prestigious lodge we would experience a 5 star holiday but it was 3/4 at most .

- Keith, May 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We very much appreciate you bringing certain matters to our attention as this enables us to rectify these issues as necessary. It is great to hear that you enjoyed the view from your Shoreside Lodge, it is indeed a magical sight. It is also good to hear that the beds provided you with comfort and a good nights sleep. We have taken on board your comments regarding the grading of the accommodation and will ensure that we review and update the description as necessary. Property Owner

Andrew November 2021

“Location absolutely fantastic.”

Beautiful Views. Lovely clean lodge. Unfortunately we arrived Friday of the storm and lost power for the weekend so was just a bit chilly to say the least. The only criticism is there was no leaflets or paperwork to tell us what to do in this event of losing power. The email from Lake district lodge holidays had the wrong night watchman telephone number. We had no idea what was happening around us and couldnt go out because of the storm. But not for the storm it would have been idilic.

- Andrew, November 2021

Thank you for your valued feedback. We note that you found the lodge and the views idyllic. It was very bad weather during your stay and the telephone numbers availability, to contact in the event of a loss of power are being looked into. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. We look forward to welcoming you back with better weather. Property Owner

5 minute walk into the town for supplies or eating out with plenty of choice. However we preferred sitting on the deck in the evening with a beer and a simple salad supper. Highly recommended!

Mrs Marisa Gibbon Oct 2020

“Fabulous location.”

Disappointment on arrival as exterior looked unkempt. On entering, the lodge looked clean but on closer inspection the kitchen was grubby. The hob was greasy and the utensil jar was dirty. Not enough storage in the kitchen and the bin was awkward to use, having to open two cupboard doors each time. Downlight which was situated over a dark area that housed the kettle and toaster, didn't work. Main bedroom, small and dark, but it is located at the back of the lodge whereby not a lot of light comes through. Twin bedroom ok and this had the better wardrobe space. Good hot water and heating. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Short walk into Bowness

- Mrs Marisa Gibbon, Oct 2020

Thank you for writing a review of your recent stay at Shoreside Lodge. We were sorry there were a couple of minor cleanliness and maintenance issues. It is most unusual for guests to experience any problems and these will be addressed. We appreciate you bringing them to our attention. The lodge enjoys a lovely location with fine views of the lake and is a popular place to stay. Property Owner

“We had an excellent stay at Shoreside Lodge.”

The view from the lodge is spectacular and you could spend all day just watching the world go by if you wish. The park itself is in easy reach of Bowness and only takes a few minutes to walk into the hustle and bustle of the town. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The fantastic view from the lodge What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Sailing to Ambleside and Lakeside

Mr Graham Lewis Sep 2020

“It would be helpful if the code to access the barrier at the entrance was included in the welcome text, we arrived at 18:35, rang the number on the text (which stated the office was open 9am to 9pm.”

) the automated reply stated that the office closed at 5pm. We tried the reception on-site, also closed, as the arrival time is currently after 16:00 it may be useful to have staff available until a reasonable time, we eventually got the code from a member of bar staff within the clubhouse. The property is located within a holiday park complex, although it is not a problem as the site is relatively quiet. Location of lodge is great, overlooking Lake Windermere. The Lodge is a few years old and in good condition, there was a slight smell of damp in the main bedroom, (this is the wettest part of England), this i believe is down to the debris, leaf litter and dead wood accumulating behind the lodge, the groundsman on the site also used the area to dispose of the grass cuttings from his mower. There were a few items that require attention, faulty bedside lamp in small bedroom that tripped out the electrics for the lodge, shower door in en-suite was off the bottom rail, there was toothpaste smear on the wall and towel rail in the same en-suite, leaves and small twigs are blocking the rainwater gutters, causing water to cascade over and down the patio doors, the addition of a leaf guard to the gutters may stop this. Bowness-on-Windermere is a pretty location, plenty of activities and attractions, lots of pubs, restaurants, shops and takeaways. Great location to explore the lakes and hills.This lodge is in an ideal location with just a small amount of attention lacking, which is what will remain in our memory. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The views over the lake, and the town. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk to the top of Brant Fell view point, a short but tricky walk from Bowness, the views are fantastic.

- Mr Graham Lewis, Sep 2020

Thank you for letting us know of your lodge experience. Graham. We are sorry to hear you had some trouble accessing the barrier code when you arrived on site. For guests that arrive later than 6, as is detailed in the welcome text simply call the number, press one for maintenance (between 9am ? 9pm) and you will be put through to a member of our team who will be happy to help. Otherwise Parkdean staff are on hand until 6pm and a night warden is also available from 6 onwards, the number is provided in your arrival information. Noting your further comments, we apologise that a few things appear to have been overlooked. These have been addressed and there should be no further issues in the lodge. We have also spoken with Parkdean and asked that the grass cuttings are removed from behind ? this is unusual, and we are sure a one off. Thank you for letting us know of your concerns and we do hope that despite these you had an enjoyable stay at Shoreside. With fantastic views, a great location and a lodge that is super equipped, this is a popular place to stay and we shall certainly do all we can to make sure that continues. Thank you, Graham for your review and we do hope you will return for another stay very soon. Property Owner
Mr Anthony Collict Aug 2020

“We stayed in this lodge from 7/8/20, we could not of asked for a better location, right on the lake, beautiful for just sitting on the veranda for hours on end, we were very lucky with the weather which was a bonus.”

“We all had a lovely break at the lodge, the location was fantastic as such a short walk to Bowness centre and the harbour area.”

The views from the cabin exceeded our expectations and was lovely to enjoy the views on the balcony. The cabin itself was more than big enough for the 4 adults to stay, very comfortable lounge area and the kitchen has everything you could need. A great base to explore the Lake District and would certainly stay again and would recommend to anyone. Thanks for having us! What did you enjoy most about your stay?

Mrs Karan Locke Mar 2020

“Having stayed at Fallbarrow many times this was our first visit to Shoreside Lodge.”

We weren't disappointed. The views are amazing & as you are up higher the lodge is very private. The lodge is cosy, comfortable and spotlessly clean. (One sofa a lot more comfortable than the other bizarrely although identical) Couldn't get wifi reception at all. Only in the clubhouse. Look forward to returning here in October. 2 parking spaces which was great for us. Love Fallbarrow and the fact you can walk into Bowness. What did you enjoy most about your stay? That view !!! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Stroll into Bowness. Visit Boaters Bar. Jacksons Bistro for fabulous food & hosting.

- Mrs Karan Locke, Mar 2020

Thank you for your review, Karan and to let us know you enjoyed your stay. Shoreside Lodge is a beautiful place to stay, the lake view - simply stunning! Noting you had a problem with the wifi, we are sorry. Wifi is provided for free by the park and subject to fair usage guidelines. Quality and reliability of connection will vary based on the number of people using it, prevailing weather conditions and therefore may be limited or slower than you are used to. With that said we have made the park aware of your experience. Your comment regarding the sofa has been passed on to the lodge owners, although indeed bizarre! Despite the lack of wifi, we are so pleased you enjoyed staying at Shoreside and are due to return in October. We look forward to welcoming you again then! Property Owner

“Arrived at Fallbarrow Holiday park and staff were friendly and helpful, giving keys and directions to our lodge.”

On arrival the lodge was clean and tidy, the view of lake Windermere was totally stunning (and the reason we picked it) So we weren't disappointed! The owners have thought of everything so the lodge is a real home from home! The holiday park is well maintained with a beautiful backdrop, there is a little shop/cafe, The Boathouse bar/restaurant that serves a good range of drinks and food and your just a few mins walk into Bowness Bay where there are shops and where you can catch a boat to do the lake cruises (all are highly recommended!)

“We had two lodges on Fallbarrow over May bank holiday weekend as an extended family.”

The stand out difference between the two is the stunning position which affords a view over lake Windermere. Just wow. The ever changing scenery was captivating from morning until night. The lodge itself was great, had everything we needed for a long weekend. On arrival it was very clean and this is appreciated. Slightly compact, but for a family of 4 this wasn't a problem. It felt very safe for my son to cycle out in front of the lodge, affording him some independence. Short walk to the main Fallbarrow amenities and could do a really nice loop round the park taking in the sights of Bowness from a distance. We would love to return one day soon! What did you enjoy most about your stay? The view! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?

“Super lodge overlooking the lake with views to die for.”

Peace and tranquility harmonies the location and yet the lake is alive with activity. Boats and cruisers visible from the lounge enhance the lake giving the feel of leisure itself, just awesome. Lodge reflects all of this also being in an excellent location. We took our twin grandsons with us on our break, they were captivated by the freedom and excited by the beautiful ducks, gulls and swans within arms reach. outside steps were accessible for three year olds obviously with care. They loved their first twin beds room, and can't wait to go back to 'my house' as they call the lodge....... Didn't want to leave! What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“It was dark when we arrived and the lodge looked beautiful with its Christmas lights.”

Although we knew it had a view of the lake it wasn't until the next day that we saw how amazing the view is. The location is perfect and only a short walk into Bowness to the characterful Hole in the Wall pub for lunch. The lodge was lovely and warm and well looked after. We visited the Choices Health Club pool which was only a short drive away and we almost had the place to ourselves. We will definitely be back. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“We arrived early, so sat in the clubhouse and enjoyed a good wine.”

The check in process was smooth & we arrived at our cabin which was situated directly on the lakefront with a fantastic view over the Lake & valley. The kids fed the ducks, geese & swans everyday as you can buy the seeds from the shop on sight. The little shop is well equipped with all you may need/have forgotten. The cabins themselves are lovely, clean and well equipped. Bedrooms are minimal space as you'd expect in a caravan, but they are comfortable. Towels & linen was clean. I'm not an early riser, but here I was up every day to sit and watch sunrise over the beautiful lake Windermere. You can lose hours watching the light play on the mountain surrounding. We used the clubhouse which serves lovely food, and all this is just a 5 minute walk from the town where you can catch the boat everywhere. We hardly used the car, which meant we were able to make use of the numerous cozy pubs as we chose. I would highly recommended & certainly return. Thank you cabin-owners. You're very lucky to have this superb location. X What did you enjoy most about your stay? Locality & views What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Take the boat to Ambleside.

Mr Paul Molle Oct 2018

“Lovely property with view of the lake from the living room.”

Car parking is in front next to the lake and the chalet is elevated from the road in front, so passers by can't look in and the view from the living room is uninterrupted. Well equipped kitchen (which includes not only a dishwasher, but also a washing machine) although spare storage space for your own food is somewhat limited. The owners have gone to great length to provide comfortable sofas, lighting and extras such as little toileteries and books about the area. The beds are on the small side (narrow singles and the double is 4'6"). The park was quiet out of season and we had a lovely time. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The lakeside views are spectacular What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? .

- Mr Paul Molle, Oct 2018

Thank you for the review, Paul and it is pleasing to hear you had a lovely holiday at Shoreside. This cosy two-bedroom holiday lodge is in a fantastic location, the lake views are simply magnificent.

“Just returned from our third visit this year to Shoreside Lodge at Fallbarrow Park .”

We did spring, summer and autumn. All three seasons are superb at the lodge . It is so clean and well appointed it's like a home from home ( wish we had the views at home ). Being within easy walking distance of Bowness is also a big plus. Have a drink with no need to drive. Bonus. Great restaurants and pubs available also. Overall a fantastic stay and looking forward to the next one. As we are both retired we prefer the weekly breaks as opposed to the weekends when Bowness can be very busy. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The comfort of the lodge and the view. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Sizergh castle (National Trust) well worth a visit. One of the best houses we have visited.

“We have just returned from our second stay in Shoreside Lodge at Fallbarrow Park in Bowness and we had another fantastic stay.”

The lodge could not be better sited, right on the lakeside by the jetties. To be woken every morning by the ducks and geese was great. The lodge was very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. The bed was extremely comfortable and bathroom and showers very good. Fallbarrow is very handy for Bowness with it's good assortment of pubs, bars and restaurants, and all within easy walking distance. There is a bar on site but we didn't use it as we preferred to go for a walk so cannot comment on that. We enjoyed it so much that we are returning for our third visit to Shoreside this year in October. What did you enjoy most about your stay?
