“Turned out a lovely one night stay”
Walking through the door - the inside was a surprise - it was lovely. A huge King bed - which was extremely comfortable. Very light and airy room with table & 2 chairs. Nice size work surface with coffee machine. Fitted microwave & fridge. Sliding door into bathroom. Great walk in shower (with shampoo/conditioner bottles supplied). The towels provided were big & fluffy (like spa towels), & there was a hairdryer. Would recommend. Lovely area (which we didn't have time to explore)

“Would highly recommend for hikers and everyone else!”
Our room at Retreat on the Lake was absolutely perfect. The room was large, the beds very comfortable, and the bathroom facilities were great. We were surprised how quiet the road was. The location is perfect - just across from places like Tilted Cafe and Ingles Market, with lots of other amenities nearby too. We spoke with Chris on the phone as we hadn't received our door details (due to me having an international phone) and he was lovely - polite and helpful.
