“The Rees distinguishes itself with a lakeside setting and dedication to both luxury and sustainability; its dining room sources locally, and a private beach encourages watersports. The Mercedes shuttle to town is a thoughtful perk, and personalized vehicle tours extend the boutique experience. I think this hotel appeals to travelers seeking both adventure and refined comfort.”
