Hideaways' Review |
The clear, still waters of Lake Massawippi provide a perfect mirror to the soul of this delightful waterfront retreat, born from one couple's imagination as an outdoorsmans' lodge. Ripplecove Inn & Spa continues to be family owned and operated to this day, affording a natural sense of warmth and hospitality true to its Canadian auberge roots. Everywhere you turn, there's some reminder of the inn's 1945 origins as a magnet for sports enthusiasts: canoes drawn up to the shore, touring bicycles at the ready, fishing rods waiting to pull in the big one. And yet, Ripplecove Inn has a sophistication and flair that should please the most discriminating bon vivant: four-diamond cuisine, wine tastings, attentive service, and romantically inclined guest rooms and suites, some with fireplaces, marbled baths, and private balconies. Add in a few decidedly 21st-century amenities like a luscious new spa and updated Internet access, and you have a four-season destination that has evolved beautifully over decades of refinement.
Whether you hibernate in the privacy of your room—sipping wine before a crackling fire or succumbing to breakfast in bed—or venture out for a swim in the heated pool or a hike through Ripplecove's 12 acres, you'll find more than enough to fill your days. Better yet, relax on the dock with a glass of fine wine and catch the sunset reflecting on the glassy waters of Lake Massawippi. |
