Not as expected
We had high hopes because of the reviews. When we booked, there was no mention of construction or that half the lodge was closed. The shops, bar or restaurant was not open. Ice machine broken and a doorknob fell off. We did like the spacious rooms and towels, bedding and new carpet was nice. We tried to contact manager, with no success. The creek runs through the area that is closed. We prolly won't stay here again

The front staff was very nice. The town is super cute and quiet. Room was spacious and clean. The downfall, very very thin walls. Our upstairs neighbors were extremely loud and were apparently having a very good time. Kind of ruined our sleep but not the hotels fault. Happy the couple had their fun evening. lol

An Avg place to stay
Its a hotel. My first time staying here 3 yrs ago seemed better, but maybe because it was just an overnight. The people are fanastic. There were beer cans outside on the patio, but the room itself seemed clean. The bed was way too hard and uncomfortable, which with how amazingly confortable and cheap you can find mattresses these days on Amazon, I find it crazy that more hotels dont have better beds. The place is super close to a lot of great outdoor adventures though, which is why i picked it in the first place.

A trip to the woods
The biggest problem I had was with my small dog who was fairly frantic the whole time I was there. He didn’t seem to be able to relax at all & wouldn’t go into his crate to sleep. During the night he barked several times for no reason. In the morning I was speaking to a woman working in the grocery store who said there was paranormal activity at the hotel & that animals were more sensitive to it than humans. Although I really appreciated the help I got at check in I was surprised to find that my normally calm dog, who is an emotional support animal, was not able to be the comfort he usually is to me. I will probably not stay here again. I also thought the condition of the hotel, especially cleanliness was substandard.
