The cottage was beautiful. Gorgeous views of the lake and a waterfall behind. Incredible views of the northern lights when we were there. Excellent amenities. Delicious baked goods free on the reception and bonus lovely friendly dogs ran to greet us when we got there.

The Garage was my absolute favorite hotel that we stayed in. The Family that owns the farm were wonderful and even baked us cakes. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed exploring them. They also had little booklets in the rooms that told us other places to check out. Loved it!

We were given a larger room than the one we had booked. The room had a stunning view of the ocean. It was very comfortable and clean in every way. We enjoyed our stay very much.
