This eco-minded motel, in a fully renovated older complex near the lake, has two natural mineral-water spas and a heated outdoor swimming pool, composts on site, and donates $5 to charity if you opt not to have your room serviced. There are free Cruiser-style bikes for guests, and a geothermal steam box for your own hāngi-style cookout.
