We stayed here just for one night, and loved it. I'd definitely stay for 2 nights next time. We had our own balcony facing the water, wood burning fireplace in room, and jacuzzi. The king size bed is incredibly comfortable. Lots of amenities, kayaks, paddle boats, canoes, bikes, badminton, tennis. Had a facial at the spa, which was great. The... More

My wife and I spent a few days at Couples Resort in order to reconnect after a particularly busy winter. We had a nice time, and the resort does offer a good restaurant and a wide range of amenities. But there is definitely some room for improvement here. Part of the problem lies in the fact the resort bills itself... More

We just got back from the Couples Resort and we absolutely loved it. We stayed in a chalet for the weekend. It was very private and had a hot tub right on the deck, facing the lake. The king size bed was comfortable and we made a little fire in the fireplace to make it extra cozy in our cabin.... More

Life so often is rush-rush-rush. It seems like in our desire to streamline and organize our lives that at the end of the day we are exhausted...so how wonderful it was to escape for three nights to Couples Resort and unwind! This was our second trip to Couples, but our first in the Jr. Master Suites....definitely worth the extra money.... More

Sounds fantastic! We are certainly glad you enjoyed the masters. And that Mother Nature was so accommodating as to allow you to enjoy hiking and some time on the water. Thanks so much for sharing the photos. And I will be sure to pass along the kind comments to the staff. We hope to see you again when you need... More

We found the staff very friendly and helpful. This is our fourth visit to the Couples Resort. Our first was almost 20 years ago. We look forward to our next holiday... More

Friends of ours recommended this resort to us and when we looked at the website it seemed like a dream come true. When we first arrived we were slightly disappointed at how small the resort was but that quickly became a non issue. The resort is the perfect place to relax; though there were many other couples staying there we... More

Went with my wife and had a great romantic trip. We stayed in the Rhea Chateau and was very private and cozy. The hot tub was very nice, and also private. The meals were incredible.

I am so very glad that you got a chance to get away with your wife for a romantic trip. Something we should all strive to do as often as we can. Four moose during a stay is exceptional for sightings. Thank you for sharing the info. Now for those that never see one, there is some hope yet. I... More

Beautiful Dinning, 5 star dinning all the way. Wonderful room, great wine. It was definitely a weekend to remember. The weekend started out with the last snow storm of the year, so the fireplace in the room made it all okay. We were both very comfortable and impress with our weekend. We hope to be back in the fall to... More
