We got two bed room for tonight and it was fantastic. The only reason I took one star away from my review is it is not handicap assessable. You have to walk upstairs for any of the rooms. if you don’t have any handicaps then by all means, this is a great place to stay.

Absolutely beautiful and clean lodge with peaceful deck. The woman who helped check us in and out, as well as gave us our to-go pancakes in the morning, was so friendly. The restaurant food was delicious. We would come back in a heart beat!

This property is quaint and in a beautiful setting. We had the duplex cabin king room and liked the rustic style but the bathroom is tiny! Most disappointing was the restaurant was a bit under whelming. Lots of choices but nothing was outstanding.

The property is adjacent to the Powder House Restaurant. We have been to the restaurant a few times over the past 40 years. This time we were disappointed. The greet staff seemed stressed and annoyed, the wait staff (one person) was overworked and spread too thin and the food was meh. Hopefully, it was just us who felt this way and it was due to the season and too many customers/tables. Otherwise, we like the place.

First trip out west.
The air conditioners are loud. Our frig made loud noice in tbe middle of the night. When i put my durty linen outside they did not return clean because i did not fill put some form which was not explained to us. When i called the office about not getting linen back, i was snapped at about how i needed to learn about the form. It has a great restaurant so it is very busy and noisy with traffic.

Would stay again now that I know the ropes!!!
Driving up we were a little concerned as there were no signs for check in! Signage is not very good for anything except the restaurant! Once I got someone to the desk, checkin was easy! Parking was difficult in the room area! With a truck, it was impossible to maneuver into a parking space! The room was quaint and comfortable! The AC was loud but drowned out road noise! The system of providing what was needed daily with a checklist was clever! A few suggestions: motion lights for night arrivals so you can see the step and walkway from the parking lot; phone didn’t work and we could not find ice machine! It would be nice to have a list of general info in each room! After I realized the phone didn’t work, I used my cell to call the front desk and had to search to find the number!! Again, a helpful info sheet would’ve been nice!!
