Emerald Lake Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Friendly and helpful staff, as always. Gorgeous views. Lots of tourists this time of year, more than we've ever seen before, especially near the bridge and canoes (to be fair, there isn't really anything the Lodge can do about that). Luckily, the Clubhouse is in the perfect location for guests to hangout (either on chairs or in the hot tub) away from the crowds while still soaking in the views. The crowds died down and it was really quiet and calm by around 7pm. Brought our dog with us and she loved the dog bed and treats provided. The trail maintenance/new boardwalk they're building near the back of the lake is incredibly well done! Also, dinner was exceptional."

10/10 Excellent
"Nice place in an idyllic location. Well suited for a family or small group of travelers. The check-in process is well run and everything in the cabin was clean and in relatively good order. Worth noting that the upstairs bathroom doesn’t have a shower. There is a tub without a hand shower, and it’s in the loft without walls around it so would only work for an intimate family who wants to take baths."
