Verified reviewexcellent

Easy check in, pleasant staff and beautiful location. Chalet was very clean and comfortable. Hot tub took about 5 hours to warm up but once it was at temperature it was awesome with an amazing view. The "wild" animals walking around added to the relaxing atmosphere. Definitely will be back but next time we will stay a bit longer and bring friends.
