    Nice view of the lake. But unfortunately it was raining so we didn't get to enjoy the galaxy through the skylight. Room was modern and nice.

    Very clean and friendly staff. I think if we had a clear night then viewing the stars from bed would have been magical. Also breakfast delivered to your room is a nice touch.
