Our room was very nice until you got to the bathroom then it looked like they forgot to upgrade it. I just wish the bathroom would have been as nice as the rest of our room. Our bed was very comfortable, and we had two nights of wonderful sleep. The breakfast was simple, but we didn't need a lot. We would definitely stay there again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The communication from the hotel was excellent and the entire staff was friendly and accommodating so that was a plus. The rooms were partially updated but the bathroom walls, ceilings, floors and baseboards were not and there were visible areas of mold. The hot tub was roomy but we did not use it because the water was not warm enough for the cold outside temps. We did see a whole herd of elk (at least 100, probably more) pass right outside our window, so that was the highlight of our stay.

Staff were very nice. I liked the communication leading up to stay. Rooms could use updating, but beds were comfortable and for most part room was clean. However, vacuums won't get to edges of floor boarding and there was a layer of dust/dirt/particles you see every time climbing in to the bed. Aside from that small thing, I'd recommend the stay.

Stayed for our anniversary in the adult only suite and it was amazing! For a small fee they had rose petals and tea light candles throughout the room. It was clean and quiet. The staff was so nice and gave us a recommendation for a steak house that was so romantic. We will definitely stay here again!
