Wow! What a magical place Edgewater is. I came to relax and as soon as i walked in I felt calm. The restaurant has fabulous food, from breakfast to dinner. Sitting outside up on the hill and looking down at the lake was my favourite. The grounds are just lovely. The staff were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They even offered to carry my bags to my room. The walk around the lake was absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend a stay here.
