Mountain Heights Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The motel owner was super helpful and very nice. He owns alpacas and gave us carrots to go feed them. The room was clean and had everything that we needed. We had a guided tour and the meeting point was super close so the location was perfect for us. The mountain view from the motel was gorgeous."
