This hotel was a wonderful surprise. The lovely atmosphere, the building, the view from our room. Evetything was perfect. The only 2 points for improvement: the bathroom could do with a renovation, and the music outside in the restaurant was very unsuitable. Disco days...
Ripplecove again did not disappoint. Hubby and I appreciate the safety, quiet, cleanliness, professionalism of everyone we had encountered. I will always recommend Ripplecove to anyone who is looking for a to reset or who wants to leave behind the bustle and hustle for few days. I will also recommend a room with the lake view.

The carpet in our room was badly stained in the doorway area- otherwise a spacious comfortable room. Tv flat on wall impossible to watch from the couch which was off to the side. TV needs to be on a swivel mount
We had a lovely large room with a patio overlooking the lake. While the room and view are gorgeous, you are near the pool and all of the activity on the water so it can be a bit noisy. These larger rooms have refrigerators and ovens so they are nice for families who want to prepare some food in the room. We really enjoyed our stay, but it is important to note that breakfast ends at 10 and lunch is not available until 11:30. There is no food option available in the interim. Additionally it would be great if the hotel would add a coffee bar or light breakfast option for those interested in a quick easy start to the day. I love that they have boats and SUPs available with no wait and no additional charge. Easy to just enjoy a short activity on the lake. Additionally they have a large selection of bikes and helmets for guests to use. Lovely trail nearby! Overall the resort, food and service are wonderful. Better option if you have kids than for a romantic, quiet getaway.
We had a fabulous timeâŠthe rooms, service,
Food, drinks, facilities and grounds are all top-notch. It isnt cheap, but the extra expense is well deserved.
Ripple Cove is a superior hotel with gracious staff, delightful rooms, and a lovely lakeside setting. Whatâs more, the area has numerous charming surprises. We have been to this area of Quebec numerous times, and hopefully it will not be nearly our last!
