“Worth the parking alone on a busy summer day! Communication with the lodge was great. Staff were helpful. Room had everything you could need including a small kitchenette.”
“We even had elk walk up within 8 feet of us. It was beautiful!”
“Walls are very thin. Not the property's fault that we had an especially noisy neighbor, but you do hear everything in adjacent units, even normal footsteps from those above you.”
“Our room was cozy, comfortable and immaculately clean. The location is great and the staff was super friendly and helpful.”
“The facility and appliances are a bit old, the convenience of the location makes it worthwhile and the kitchen helped us save during the trip.”
