Reviews
"Really beautiful property with tons of natural beauty all around. We booked a tent but were contacted and upgraded to a cottage because of cold weather, which was a really nice treat. I loved all the birds and turtles on the lagoon so much! Forced me to slow down and I desperately needed that!"
"The cottage was on a lagoon teeming with bird life, so beautiful and peaceful. The restaurant was delicious and the hike recommended by the lovely Aberdonian that welcomed us was stunning."
"Over the moon about the locale,...We booked a tent with a gorgeous view. The lake, the lagoon, the animals, the woodsy landscaping, the air, the statues and structures. This place is a delight."
"We had our wedding here in August, and had the most amazing experience. Everyone who attended had a great time and loved the venue. It's such a beautiful location, and it was so great to have a range of affordable accommodation to meet everyone's needs."
"We really enjoyed the beautiful setting of Ruby lake resort. Crystal clear waters of the lake were great for a cooling swim. The glamping tents were clean and a relaxing quiet experience in the forest. The restaurant was great value and had fantastic Italian food, make a reservation before you arrive."
