-I recommend going there during summer time to enjoy the view over the lake, and the exterior activities like the spa and swimming pool. During winter, it’s way too cold to enjoy the spa, and the lake and pool are frozen. -The rooms are nice, but nothing incredible. The fireplace makes it better. However the pillows were way too bulky and stiff for us, and we had a humming noise almost all night long under our room (room 31). -The food is great (with some few hiccups like the homemade sausage), and mostly the Sunday brunch is delicious. I definitely recommend going there just for the brunch.

Beautiful, luxurious and very comfortable stay. Beautiful views of the lake. The bed and the bedding are super comfy.

This hotel was amazing. The room had a fireplace and a beautiful view on the lake. The staffs were friendly, professional making you feel welcome. The food was amazing, you can relax at the pub for some drinks and food or go for great food at the Riverain, which the food was fantastic and their list of wines was huge. Great place the relax and explore.

First of all, kudos to the Front Desk Manager, Clementine, for help and compassion with a booking error. She went above and beyond! Ripplecove is a lovely resort, and looks like the perfect place to unwind for several days. We only stayed one day, en route from Boston to Quebec City, and our one day was unseasonably cold & rainy. We would definitely consider a 2- or 3-day stay, with better weather luck, and enjoy some of the amenities (outdoor pool, sauna, hot tubs, etc.). Our room (#11, in the main building) was spacious and very comfortable, with a lovely view of the lake. We were a little unhappy with some type of nearby noise, perhaps a generator or something electric, that seemed to kick-on, run for a short while, stop, and then start up again. While we had dinner in nearby Magog, we did sit in the beautiful pub for an after-dinner cocktail, and also enjoyed some quiet time in the "green room" behind the front desk area. Our reservation included the brunch package, and what a spectacular meal that was. The buffet of fruit, pastry, meats & cheeses, plus the hot entrée that was served, were all delicious and kept our tummies full all day until we arrived in Quebec City. We also experienced great & friendly service all-around from check-in to check-out. We are very thankful for friends who recommended Ripplecove to us.

The place is absolutely lovely, peaceful and serene, the perfect place to rest. The only big disappointment was our first dinner atthe bar lounge, very poor quality. BUT the following evening we had a very positive experience at the Riverain.. lovely! And a special mention to the chef patissier, his chocolate and noisette dessert was a masterpiece! Wow!
