Checking in was super easy! The receptionist was very friendly and helpful when we couldn’t get the tv to turn on. She actually came to our room to help us figure it out. The remote doesn’t turn on the the tv you must turn tv on manually.

Asked for a handicap room for my parents. Was told because it was ordered on expedia they could not accommodate us. If they were full this would not have bothered me. But 75 percent empty and put my parents on the second floor.

Nice property but several motorcycles took up parking spaces by parking 1-bike per space that could easily accommodate 2 or more per space… had to park a long way from unit for upstairs room that was not advantageous to senior guests toting luggage…

Room was clean but very rustic with 1970's used (some broken) decor and furniture. The restaurant was convenient and decent food and staff. Restaurant seamed like a popular local spot.

We had a great overnight stay and slept extremely well in our room. There are a number of others all around due to a dirt biking event but it was quiet and everyone was extremely courteous. Having the restaurant there was great since we were tired from travel and just wanted to sit in our rooms and relax before bed. Would def stay again if in the area!

The staff were great! The room I booked said mountain view. There's no mountain view. The carpet was pretty gross. I wore flip flops the entire time. But if you're looking for a place to sleep that allows pets, this place works.

We stayed here some years ago and I remembered it as dated but pleasant and clean. This time it was distinctly grubby. When we checked into our room the bed was unmade, obviously not serviced. Called the front desk and was immediately’upgraded’ to a nearby room with king bed. The room was so dark we couldn’t see to unpack so I tried to open the slats on the wooden window blind. The whole blind crashed to the floor. The table in the room had a broken pedestal, wobbled so badly it was unusable. The carpet was dirty and stained and there was visible grunge in the corners. With all that though the staff was very friendly and the price was good.

The room was nice clean fairly spacious. I got the master suite with the hot tub. The hot tub is in like a separate room which is fine. The room was kind of outdated but cabin style, so I guess it was fitting.
