The place is as pictured. The good thing is we did NOT have any direct contact when checking in or out. The sheet was good quality as were pillowcases. We did need our own blankets (we were told to bring them). Bath towels are too small for an adult of plump size. Clothest is turned into space for the fridge and countertop for the microwave, but it has a little bit of space to hand two jackets. There are also hooks behind the door that can be used. The BAD/THE WORST thing for me as I am very sensitive to bad smells is the musty/almost moldy smell of the room. We tried to be outside as long as possible and then when we came back we had a door open in order for me not to get sick. We also went to town and bought the candle with aroma and that helped me stay inside. Overall it is an old place, but it has a good spot; looking at flowing river.

Our towels are of hotel quality & size. Describing yourself as "plump" , suggests that you have special needs...and something that you should inquire about when selecting accommodations. The Lodge is etched into a rocky hillside, and on the river. Our environment produces lots of moisture...like staying waterfront at the ocean...you can smell the ocean in the air. Our policies state that this conditon exists, and warn allergy sufferers to be aware. We provide dehumidifiers, and the rooms have individual controlled heat and A/C. Given the threats that Covid presents, this is a preferred arrangement as the air is not co-mingled with others like a central system. Lastly, I might mention that you did not call the office, or address the issues you compain about with the on premise personnel.....and that the problem apparently was not bad enough that caused you to check out early as you stayed for multiple days. If we had be made aware of your issues, we may have been able to mitigate them. BTW, black mold is NOT PRESENT....and we have had our air quality tested...and the interior of the rooms are better than exterior readings, but we have experienced unprecedented preciptation.
