Edgewater is in the most perfect location set amongst beautifully manicured gardens that run down to the lake's edge. An easy stroll into town serviced by one of the many walking trails. Our room was extremely comfortable with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake, we cannot wait to return.

The property was clean and the staff was kind. We had booked an premium lakeview room to watch the water in warmth and comfort, but realized that the restaurant looked directly into our room and thus we had to keep the blinds closed for most of our visit. Breakfast was standard continental fare. Laundry was convenient. Thank you!

Check-in and parking were a breeze, and the bathroom was spotless. The only downside was the living room AC; it struggled to keep the room cool against the strong afternoon sun, making the space feel a bit stuffy

The heaters in the rooms were fantastic and the bathroom dryer was wonderful to dry hair and clothing. The washer/dryer combo with detergent included for a load was soooo spectacular! Our view of the sunrise over the lake was a highlight to our trip. The dining staff (Madeline and Colton) were exceptionally accommodating with our dietary needs and gave us recommendations for a winery! The chef did a great job to make our meals work for us. The housekeepers (Yahol and Chihari) even gave us excellent service!
