Amazing stay
The room was great after a long drive. I sat on the balcony for awhile and then went down to the pool with the waterfall, the hot tub was relaxing, and after a hot shower in my room , sat by the fire with some of the other guests and talked till bed time.

The Lodge was absolutely beautiful. DO NOT USE EXP3DIA!!! EXP3DIA TOOK MY MON3Y FOR THE HOTEL ROOM IMMEDIATELY ,BUT DID NOT SEND THE CONFIRMATION TO THE HOTEL until many hours later, forcing us to pay for another room just to have a place to stay for the night. I spent over an hour on hold with Exp3dia customer service, but no one ever picked up. I’ve sent requests through their online chat, and I’ve never received a response. It was an absolutely horrible experience.
