We had a room in the main building. While we didn’t have a balcony, our view of the lake was impressive. The room was extraordinarily large and offered a seating area and fireplace. The bathroom was also generously sized. We had no trouble as non-French-speaking guests. The hotel’s dining room provided beautiful meals and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We would definitely book this hotel in the future.

Nice room. Pretty Lakeside location. The pool area looked very nice. Good service from all the staff. This definitely includes the Reception staff, but the Reception area itself is not very welcoming, and there is almost no public space other than the dining rooms.

What a gorgeous property! I was nervous about my terrible French speaking, but they were warm, helpful, and responsive. Everything, from the pool to the boats were well taken care of and easily accessible, and there was so much to do that was included with the stay that saved me money, like not having to rent a kayak. The restaurant and service are top notch, and the bed/room are very comfortable and cozy. Can't wait to spend more time there.

Ripplecove hotel is where to be if looking for a luxurious, quiet, romantic and a relaxing spot with an incredibly breathtaking view. The location is everything my husband and I were looking for to reset before summer ends. The newly renovated downtown Orford is 15-20 minutes away and there you’ll find a great park, bar and restaurants if you wish to wonder around a little bit and Sherbrook 30 minutes away. Then again Ripplecove has everything you need to not go anywhere else. Le Riverain a beautiful restaurant with a great view of the lake that provides excellent service and a very nice bar both right on site. Though, I will not recommend the spa as the experience we all have in our head about a spa is not there unfortunately. The elements of a spa experience is missing. Everything else at Ripplecove is absolutely amazing. Hubby and I cannot wait to go back; we found our spot for our yearly tradition of a quiet/romantic getaway. P.S. I believe and give benefit of doubt. However, I don’t go anywhere without scrolling up and down reviews. Therefore, I will always be honest when giving reviews about a place to help others. Can’t wait to go back.
