Creator's Key Takeaways
It's a lot better than doing an excursion. It actually probably comes out cheaper in most cases for a whole family or for a couple different people.
It is probably one of the most beautiful lakes I've ever seen, especially with the mountains behind. This was worth the drive.
You're not held hostage to others and their time schedule or bus. You can do things at your own leisure.
