Mackenzie Apartments & Suites

Mackenzie Apartments & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"I can’t recommend any property more highway! Everything about this property and the host was absolutely top notch. The view of the lake was gorgeous, communication was excellent, and I even found my name written on the garage door once I found the property which was the only thing that was a little bit difficult, but I arrived after dark, which was the only challenge. The kitchen was stocked with cups and plates, the bedrooms with extra linens, the bathrooms were clean, clean with great towels and everything needed. The sofas were comfortable, and there were even toys for children, along with a highchair in my closet if needed. The garage that I was able to park in was extremely spacious, allowing access to the vehicle with the door closed, also housing a washer and dryer with detergent provided. This would be a great place for a couple or a family, and I wish we would’ve had more nights than the two we spent there to enjoy it, the lake and Mount Cook."
