The staff was wonderful. The cabins were beautiful. Learning about the local history and checking out the ruins were very interesting. Animal friendly.

So very sad to see how this has been let go. You can tell this was once a large and energy-filled place with a lot to offer. However it seems they were bought by foreign investors that have not put a single dime into upkeep. The result is now a dilapidated shell of what was once there. For example, the main 'castle' building is completely unusable - which makes for some pretty mis-representative photos of the facility. It's completely off limits and falling into ruin. Also the main lodge building is not in a state to house guests, despite Expedia taking bookings for those rooms. We were luckily upgraded to a self contained cabin unit because of this, as a result of the extremely nice and friendly woman working the front desk. But you can see that even these chalets are in need of a lot of work. And whoever owns this place is not putting in the effort. They also do not have access to the lake anymore, which is a huge negative. It's really quite sad to see what was probably once a beautiful resort with so many cool things to do and grounds to explore, be left to fall apart and crumble. Very saddening.

The property is perfect for anyone working at the local mine or buisness. The rooms are dissent size, with a mini fridge. There is provisions to do your own cooking in the shared kitchen. I would prefer staying here over some of the local motels. Very quiet. I stayed in the log house and the heat was limited. I will be returning on my next visit.
