The location is beautiful but it’s lacking the service. Room was good but bathroom hardly had any supply. No hangers in the room for clothes, no bath robes, no hair dryer and some other.
Also charging for WiFi ?????
Very disappointed as the hotel charges are so high.
But the restaurant service and food was great and staffs are excellent.
I liked the aspect of being disconnected from the world in a mini getaway in the wilderness and able to peacefully spend time in the woods.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property is nice and pleasant. The problem is the room service is poor. The house telephone was not working and it took more than an hour to even get drinking water in the room.
If you want an isolated location and a forest experience then this place is good, however you will have to ignore a lot of things like the quality of food, The Housekeeping and the manners of staff.
The Bed sheets were very dirty with food stains and other stains..and when you asked them to change they bring other bed sheet with similar stains.
Food is just ok...while they force you to have buffet, as room dining does not include main course you can only order limited items like sandwich.
The Internet is charged very heavily as nothing works in that region.
When you tell owner about housekeeping he says the customers go out and stain the bed sheets..nice attitude.
If you book through a third party website like hotels.com then they will not honor any additional commitment given by that website like free upgrade, Guaranteed late checkout etc..
Amazing property at a very beautiful location. The staff way too much helpful and welcomes the guests warmly. A must visit place for Family, Friends or a couple.
