Spring on the lake: gardens in bloom before the summer set arrives.
About 62% below its typical peak.
The hotel closes for the season and the lake itself goes dormant with fog, cold grey days, skeleton ferry schedules, and most lakeside restaurants and gardens shut, so there is little to do even if you find a room.
