"The Larix is a beautiful property where every detail has been well thought out and decor and amenities are wonderful. The beds are very comfortable, robes are provided, and breakfast was the best continental spread I have seen. Easy after hours check in.

"Our anniversary stay was wonderful! We stayed in Cabin 3. It's small and rustic but clean and comfortable. It exceeded expectations and we would absolutely stay again. (Just a note- bring a hair dryer. Outlets are ungrounded- finding an outlet to fit mine was the only thing that caused any challenge.)"
