Wonderful place. It is an older lodge so keep that in mind. There are some upgrades but per the info booklet, there will be more. So you will see a few things that still need to be tweaked. So very charming, would definitely stay again.

Really great location for walking to bars & food. Guests next door one evening of our stay-the walls are kind of thin.
