10/10 Excellent

Absolutely stunning lodge overlooking the lake. The location on Expedia is incorrect and you actually need to be met and transferred over by boat. Once at the lodge, you've got lots of activities to book (horseback, fishing, hiking, etc) and a Michelin-level dinner to enjoy. The cabins are cosy and offer a perfect escape into the wild. Only note: the double room windows overlook the path to the other cabins, so it's not super private.
