I had an ocean view room which was nice and comfortable . The parking was a bit far, I didn’t use any other facilities, however, the view from the restaurant seemed nice. There are only stairs to get to rooms, take this into account for carrying luggage

The setting and scenery is beyond compare. So beautiful and the night we were there it was very peaceful and serene. The room was large and comfortable for 2 adults and 2 teens. We made use of the patio at night to play cards and then enjoyed it again in the morning to have coffee and let the day come to a start. We had dinner on the patio and the ambience was fabulous but the food maybe a 7/10. That said after a long day of travelling and sight seeing the convenience factor more than made up for it. Would definitely stay again. Actually trying to find a reason to get back.

Painters Lodge famous for world renown history. Recently purchased by the Evergreen Hospitality Group, who are changing that history, based on their own perceived ideas, by altering the deco, & removing locally displayed artifacts that were present for years. All new staff, not up to speed on customer service in the hospitality business. Experienced difficulties checking in, with a non fluent English speaking host.

It seems they are slowly renovating the property, but it was really dated. Bathroom shower was very moldy to the point we chose to skip using it. Overall cleanliness was questionable. Mini kitchen had some things but missed a few basics like knife and dish towel. Nice to have the space of 1 bedroom cabin, but didn’t feel like we got our money’s worth. Staff check in were friendly and warm, but we also had a wait for it to be ready even though we were there at check in time. Deck for restaurant was great to sit and wait with our pup. Had issue with tv input- the guy who came to help resolved but was not terribly friendly/mildly condescending. Note: you need to push input and arrow together to make it work. Place has good bones, but needs work on the basics before focusing on outside of property.

The breakfasts were good however main dining room was not in operation for dinner! Happy hour was good. All though they couldn't make a Martini because they did not stock vermouth?! Very nice new pool and surround with outdoor BBQs. No working ice machines accommodation pods. Had to go to main building to get ice. No AC available! In fairness new owners have been only been in charge a few months but signs of improvements evident. I would say avoid this place for a year and check back then as it potentially could be a 4+.
