We thought it odd that we couldn’t have a fire as we were staying at the lodge. She said we close at 7:30 everyone has to leave, how do we leave when staying in the lodge? Strange.

This is my 2nd time staying here. I love it. Although last night while I was sleeping I heard some noise coming from the floor where I had my bag. I remember I had a closed bag of chips. I heard lots of noise coming from my bag bookbag. And when I woke up. I see the new bag of chips had a whole where a rodent tried to get into the bag. A little disappointed.

Very nice. Out if the way with beautiful views. One problem: no elevator for older guests, and the website did not mention it. Perhaps put them on the first floor? It was not easy hauling suitcases up and down the long flight of stairs. Another guest also commented on it. If we had known, we could have requested a first floor room

I don't recommend it

Overlook Lodge is filthy and smelly. We booked it thinking we were booking the Inn & didn't realize it. They send you to this disgusting out building with no staff to help with luggage, and no elevator. The staff completely washed their hands of our rez because we used Expedia, almost disapprovingly. The whole place is overrun with too many people. Bad experience, I'll never return

The lodge rooms were very small and beat up. Do not eat at the 1915 restaurant. It was absolutely horrible. If you’re paying more than $160 for a room per night, I suggest staying somewhere else.
