Nicely remodeled unit. Clean, quiet, nice balcony. Close to town but far enough away to feel secluded. Helpful, friendly staff. Loved the coffee macine.

The lodge was a great place to stay. Our space was separate from main building and was had everything we needed. Bonus was the Nespresso coffee and wood burning fireplace! The only negative thing about the place was the shower and the shower door. Make sure you close the shower door before you start the shower; otherwise, water gets everywhere! Staff was really good and provided us with supplies when we needed. Bus transportation was 1/2 block away. Overall our stay was great!

During my vacation, I had the pleasure of being served by two exceptional bartenders, Lara and Sam. Their dedication and skill truly made my trip worthwhile. Lara's attention to detail and creative flair in crafting cocktails left me impressed every time I visited the bar. She had an incredible ability to recommend drinks tailored to my preferences, ensuring each sip was a delight. Sam, on the other hand, exuded warmth and hospitality with every interaction. His friendly demeanor and attentive service created a welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. Thanks to the outstanding service of the concierge, my experience at this hotel was truly memorable. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking exceptional hospitality and a truly unforgettable stay.

Beautiful facility, excellent staff and service. On check in the staff went into another room with my credit card, this made me uncomfortable. The room was excellent, the problem was wood smoke from the fireplace embedded into every surface. On entering the room I was choking to breathe. I opened every door and window. I went out leaving the windows open; on return the room was bearable. When I got home all my clothes smelled like smoke, the irony being they would fine me for cigarette smoke. There was construction and limited parking available. Really too bad for such a nice facility.
