"Very nice and clean place in June lake with most rooms being full fledged apartments. we had a 1 bedroom lake facing place with full kitchen. It is a great place to stay, amenities included a ln outdoor hot tub and sauna, laundry and vending machines and game room with pool, table tennis and few other games. The rooms don’t have AC (not that it’s needed). Hanging out in hot tub outdoors and looking at the beautiful night sky full of stars was amazing. The staff was very kind and courteous. My only issue was that the bathroom vent fan didn’t appear to work so the bathroom would get very foggy after shower. But other than that it was a fantastic experience staying here. Highly recommended."
