This autumn, why not admire the vibrant colours from the lake? Choose between kayaking, pedal boating, canoeing or paddleboarding for a pleasant outing on the water. And good news: these activities are free of charge until Thanksgiving!

Interested in exploring the surrounding area? Rent a pontoon boat to see the sights on the different lakes around the hotel at your own pace. The views of fall foliage from the water are well worth your time.
