We had a last minute booking and arrived late in the evening The owners are welcoming. They also turned the heater on in the room. So after coming back from the hospital it was a quiet and warm space we needed. It was comfortable though we did not get to use any facilities as we had to rush to another hospital but the kindness shown was truly heart warming in stressful times. So thank you again. And looking forward to enjoying our stay next time.
It was one of the best hotels we have stayed in. So spacious, clean and kitchen very well equipped, got an oven as well. Got amazing view, hot tub and kids swimming and adult seperate. Just overall an amazing experience. I would 100% come back and recommend
Hassle free, good location and clean rooms. Theybwere spacious too. Easy for a family of 4. Kids said that the sofa beds were not particularly comfortable but otherwise it was all good.
the family delux had the best lake view, was quiet and the heated pools were amazing, kids loved it. thanks to peter we had an unforgettable vacation even though we mistakenly booked the wrong date we were taken care of without extra charge. the double bedroom we stayed on the last day was equally clean and cozy with dedicated parking right outside. will revisit for sure
Not the standard I was expecting. A bit tired and in need of an update. Water pressure in shower was dreadful and seemed to be affected by usage in other rooms
We had a lovely stay at the Anchorage Resort. We had the room above the reception area and the views were amazing! The hot tub was also wonderful in the evening.
