It’s very rustic and rather expensive given that, but we were paying for the location. Dinner was excellent, and the free coffee was delicious.

Parking stunk. No parking just for the hotel. And if I’m paying $500 a night I should be guaranteed a parking spot especially when you’re handicap. -Laurie Squires

Even though the properties location is great, there were other lodge nearby in the park that were also walking distance from trails and such. We were also looking forward to our reservations at the restaurant on the premises but this was very far from “fine dining”. Not only did we not finish our dinner, unfortunately was not worth the save. Overall a good experience because we made it but the hype is not necessary. (Can’t say it’s worth the price they charge.)
