The property was just as described, and check-in was easy. The restaurant was nice, and my wife and I enjoyed the tremendous service by a young lady from the French Alps who spent the summer taking care of customers. If you decide to stay, ask the employees how to get to the beach - it's a little bit of a hike down and back, but the views are well worth it!

We recently stayed there while we toured Alberta. It's ok for one night. It's very basic but our room was clean. The shower had a bit of mold and could have used a little extra cleaning but was still decent. We ate dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. The food was pretty good. The overall property could have used a tidy up. Definitely not a luxury "resort" but hotels are very limited in this area.

Friendly resort in a beautiful location. Room was clean and comfortable. The resort had lots to offer. The camping area was a little tired but nothing a bit of paint wouldn’t fix. I would go back.

Loved the resort and location. It was great having a restaurant on site and it didn't take advantage of the location by being really expensive. The only downside was not having air conditioning in the room. We had the window open but ended up having to close it due to road noise.

Clean and quiet with good views. Power went out multiple times which wasn’t too much of an inconvenience but could be depending on what you are doing in the room at the time (ex. Watching tv or showering).

Better than Expected.

I had read a bunch of negative reviews and almost canceled our booking. I am glad we didnt. The room has been renovated recently and was much nicer than I was expecting. We ate dinner at the restaurant and it was also quite good. We would stay here again.
