Ripplecove Hotel & Spa  

Set on the waterfront in Ayers Cliff, Ripplecove Hotel & Spa sits on Lake Massawippi just minutes from the town center. Nearby highlights include the Tomifobia Nature Trail, Dufferin Heights Golf Club, The Piggery Theatre and Magog River Gorge. Family-friendly features like a children’s playroom and babysitting make this lakefront hotel a great pick for families.

Rooms are individually decorated and blend cozy lakeside charm with modern tech — think fireplaces in some rooms, plasma TVs, iPod docks and espresso makers in kitchen-equipped suites. Bathrooms feature shower/tub combinations and complimentary toiletries; slippers and thoughtful touches appear by category. Expect lake views and a relaxed spa-meets-resort vibe.

Pamper yourself at the full-service spa with massages, body treatments and facials, then unwind in two hot tubs, the sauna or the steam bath. Outdoors there’s an outdoor pool, a private beach and ski-in/ski-out access with ski school and storage in winter. On-site extras include a fitness center, library, picnic and BBQ areas, concierge, elevator access, and free parking/valet.

Meeting and event facilities include multiple meeting rooms and conference space (roughly 2,000–3,955 sq ft across available rooms). Complimentary high-speed wired and wireless internet, a computer station and free valet parking support small conferences and corporate stays.

Le Riverain serves regional cuisine with lake views at the bar/lounge, plus a poolside bar for casual drinks. Full breakfasts are offered for a fee (weekday and weekend hours vary), and limited room service is available for quieter nights in.
