“Great stay-over”

We got to the chalet after dark because we arrived later than planned, and the drive was tough even with a 4x4, though we’d been warned and they do offer transport. The two‑bedroom chalet had a small kitchen, fridge, and freezer, and the staff were polite. A restaurant/bar by the lake was lively, with a small party giving a great vibe; we ate pizza and slept well. Breakfast the next day was good, served near the water. We only stayed one night as a stop‑over and would love to come back longer; kayaks can be rented for the lake. The bar was a bit busy and understaffed because a big group was staying there, and the pricing was initially wrong but was corrected.

“Beautiful lakeside setting, but the room was unacceptable”

On the positive side, the lakeside location is genuinely lovely, and the drive in was enjoyable. Note that access is 4x4 only, which guests should know in advance. The setting has real potential, but basic cleanliness, pest control and maintenance need urgent attention before this room should be rented out again. We stayed one night in the "casa bianca" and unfortunately cannot recommend this place. On arrival, staff had to remove several cockroaches from the room, and more appeared throughout our stay. No explanation or apology was offered. The bathroom was essentially unusable: the faucet didn't work properly, and the cold water in the shower could not be turned off and ran all night. The beds were not clean, with hair and visible dirt on the sheets. The room had an unpleasant smell and a generally run-down appearance, and the window screens/protections were broken. We could barely wait for the night to be over

I stayed in a spot that offered great location, a beautiful view, and plenty of convenience, but the life jackets were not positioned next to the kayaks and there was no mandatory use warning.

“Familieverblijf aan Chidinguele”

The view over the lake was stunning and the staff on site were incredibly strong and supportive, with no complaints at all.

“Prachtig verblijf en hobbelige maar prachtige weg erna toe.”

The cabins were gorgeous and the sunset was amazing, though the interior felt a bit dark.
