Clean. For families I recommend ensuring they stock up on meals and snacks since there are no stores nearby. Also ask for extra bedding ahead of time.

We had a wonderful stay at Silver Birches! The room was clean, smelled clean, the bed was comfortable and our view was amazing! Unfortunately for us it rained the whole time but there was tons offered to do if the weather had been better! We only stayed one night bc we were going on a rail bike ride and didn't want to drive home. The next time we visit, we will definitely spend more time and bring our kids! Thanks for a great overnight!

Loved it here, definitely recommend you visit and tell you family and friends. My sister introduced us to this place and it was a great getaway from the city life.

The reason for my trip was to rest and share with the family. and my expectations were exceeded. a beautiful place where you can appreciate the greatness of creation and with a lot of peace and tranquility while you can have fun away from the noise of the city. highly recommended.

I think this is a fine place to stay depending on your needs. My family booked this last minute and got a good deal on Expedia so that made it worth it. Pros: The staff were really lovely - super friendly and hospitable. The view of the lake was beautiful. We enjoyed the live music by the pool bar and the drinks were excellent. Enjoyed the fire pit at night. Some cons: Our bunk had a very musty smell which we sort of just got used to over the three days. If you are going in the summer you should know that the pool was absolutely FREEZING (in August). I spoke with other guests at the pool about how disappointing that was as you couldn't really enjoy the pool (other than a quick in and out). Also, I would advise that you bring your own pool towels - the pools towels were not much larger than a face towel (they were so small you couldn't even wrap them around a child's body much less an adult's). The hot tub was nice but, unfortunately, if you are traveling with kids under 18 they cannot use it with you. In addition to the $30 a night resort fee, there was a bizarre $7.50 cleaning fee for our room (though the cleaning fee was not a lot, I asked about it as we did not have our room cleaned during our stay and I was told it is standard for every booking with no other explanation - this is the first time in all my travels I have ever seen a "cleaning fee" - why not just add it to the room's total cost? It's just silly). But, all in all, we had a nice time and it suited our needs.

We will definitely be back!! The service and staff were fantastic, for a lake resort the place is IMMACULATE. Great vibes, great views, pools were sparkling clean, great separation of children and adults for pools, we literally have nothing bad to say. We were sad to leave.

Silver Birches was an outstanding/beautiful resort facility even in mid-winter: the lake view was breathtaking no matter what the season! We enjoyed our hike down to the Lake Visitor's Center. The champagne reception at 5pm was a very nice touch!... We felt like we were visiting family away from home. We would love to visit in the summer season. Mark & Mary Helen
