Lake House at High Peaks Resort

We were on a cycling tour and stayed here 2 nights. We did have staff upon check in but after we all got our rooms and our welcome champagne, I didn’t see a staff member (didn’t need one either). They did serve us a very nice breakfast but I think that was really because we were a tour. No complaints about our room other than the tub drain was a bit rusty. We were on the 2nd floor with a balcony and a nice view of mirror lake. This hotel is at the end of the ‘strip’ so it was a very nice walk to shopping and there are a ton of restaurants and coffee shops. I’m sure there are nicer hotels but this worked for us. There was no construction while we were there.

My family and I checked in at High Peaks Resort which is across the street of Lake House at 3pm and they were still getting the room ready. While waiting the wonderful front desk staff offered champagne for the adults and hot chocolate with locally baked cookies. Even at check in there was already care for customers. Which is appreciated as we were out there in the cold frozen lake for 2 hours. The welcoming staff was appreciated. When we got our keys, we crossed the street, parked our car and went to find our room which has a nice view of Mirror Lake. It was basic but clean. Personally I like basic. We didn't really intend to lounge much in our room so having what we had was wonderful for us. The heat was good, bathroom was basic. It had lots of towels which was good as we needed them to

It’s fine. Nothing fancy. Can be loud, especially noise in the hall. The common area when full is quite noisy because there is no carpeting. Love that they lit a bonfire outside with chairs. Nice we can use amenities of High Peaks across the street. The view and location is the best part. The staff were kind and brought a microwave to my room when I asked for one. The rooms are pretty bare. A small fridge and a keurig. Fine for a basic weekend but not if you expect to prepare any of your own food of leftovers from a restaurant visit. Afternoon shower was fine, but morning shower there was not enough hot water and I had to finish washing my hair in the sink! Also, be sure to bring your own shampoo and conditioner and soap for bathing.

You need to check in at the main building across the road. Then you simply scan your keycard to get into the parking. There is plenty of parking. There is a pool and hot tub which can be a little chilly during winter. The pool can go up to 8ft deep so make to watch the younger kids.

Loved the area. The lake the resort is on was awesome, rooms are a bit dated but they do the job. Even with having the balcony door the rooms stayed warm and quiet. I'd return if given the chance
