Room was spacious for a family of 4. Kids got their own bed/ area that doubled as a couch. King size bed was comfortable. Overall a clean place. It could use a good deep cleaning and washing of the curtains but it was fine. The view of the mountains and water was beautiful. The walk to the water was super easy and getting to the snow was a convenient 20-30 min drive. The staff was nice and attentive. We easily got extra towels, blankets and pillows. I would stay here again and recommend for an affordable stay.

Retreat at King's Beach

Our very quaint little one bedroom cabin that sleeps 4 was fully equipped with linens, towels, and basic toiletries. The kitchenette was well equipped with coffee pot and supplies, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, and stove. Dining table for 4. Beach towels were available too. Our cabin was among the big trees and across the street from their private beach with lounge chairs and dock. Heated pool was a "refreshing" temperature and needed some skimming. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Private beach was equipped with lounge chairs.It felt very homey. I would definitely stay there again.

We love that the beach access is very convenient and beautiful view. The only downside is the geese’s stool around the beach and volleyball court, but I we understand that its part of the nature. We had fun, will definitely come back.

We were pleasantly surprised when we walked into the studio cottage. It was very clean, kitchen was well stocked with nice quality dishwater & cookware. You can tell the care that was put into everything in the space, nothing was old or outdated. We will definitely be staying here again.

Beautiful property. Peaceful stay. Read the fine print though and make sure if you book it expecting beach front that you be careful to select it…we almost didn’t get a beach front we were expecting because of expedias description but staff was awesome and worked with us. Beautiful comfy cozy place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The property was clean, well-maintained, and located in a very convenient spot. One of the highlights was the lovely area by the lake – perfect for relaxing or just enjoying the view. Our room was a bit noisy since it was right next to the road, but the staff was incredibly helpful and responsive. They quickly offered a quieter room for us. We appreciated the excellent service. Would definitely stay again!

The property was clean, well equipped and the staff were friendly and allowed to checkin early. The only comment is the heater, it makes an annoying noise every 10mins that kept waking us up.
