8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2025
The house had a lot of surprising features, like heated floors and nice carpet but something were a let down from the listing. The grill was a total mess—covered in cobwebs and filled with water. Spent an hour cleaning it before I felt comfortable using it. Most of the pots, pans and knives need to be replaced—just old and worn out—some useless. Also the mattresses are worn out, my back felt like I slept in a hammock for a week.Overall, it’s a nice property but maybe needs an update of some items. The location is good but it’s an awkward distance to town—too far for a family (small children) to walk but also feels too close to drive.

We loved our stay at Q by the Lake. It had everything we needed and more for a family of 5. It’s in a great location for a lovely scenic walk into town or just a 5 min drive to town. We highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back!

The perfect house to recharge after a day on the ski fields - we quickly concluded that we would rather stay in at night and enjoy what the house offered, than eating out. Comfortable, welcoming and with all the facilities you could need. We will be back!
