Shiye Lakeview Cave Resort

The view from the room features Songhua Lake and hills on the opposite bank. The food in the restaurant is more expensive than in the city, but still tasty. The included breakfast consists of some starters, soup, and pastries – nothing more. The room did not match the description on Trip.com: a washing machine was not available. The construction of the tree house is poor – too cold on the first floor and too warm on the second. There are gaps between the planks on the walls, allowing cold air to enter. Around the hotel, there are several abandoned buildings. The resort is far from Jilin city, so leaving the area is difficult without a car. It might be suitable for active people with their own transport who want to use water scooters, as there are no other entertainment options. We booked two nights but decided to move to Jilin after the first night. Additionally, a small frog was present in the restroom of our tree house.
