The kids really enjoyed this rustic hotel

This hotel was nice as shown in pictures online. Snow park is not far. Our family had a great time. I have two complaints, the first is I was not aware that there is a kitchen hooked on to the hotel that the restaurant next-door uses so not very private, and a very strong gas smell fills the entire hotel, which worried me. You do have use of the entire hotel but I was under the assumption that it would be private, but the manager comes in and out with no warning. Which made us a little uncomfortable. The last night of our stay my granddaughter was not feeling well and threw up, I cleaned up best I could but there is no washer or dryer on the premises. I was charged $250, Which I was not happy about.

Simply Perfect!!!

We 5 couples, booked the hotel over NYE!! We had a great dinner and a murder mystery party, It was fantastic. the rooms are amazing, all the same, very comfortable beds and adorable appointments in the rooms! The main areas are exceptional for large groups!! We’d all love to come back again and also rent with our families for summer!! The only thought would be a list of items we should probably bring for kitchen. It was really awesome and the staff were all terrific also!! Thank you so much!!!
