    “Enjoyable stay.”

    Very well equipped. Main bedroom mattress uncomfortable and creaky. Cleanliness of the lodge needs improvement i.e cobwebs around windows inside and out. Main bathroom needed cleaning before use. Washing machine front dusty. Fridge could've been cleaner. Lovely location being so close to the lake.
