Sidney James Mountain Lodge

8/10 Good

"Really unique hotel tucked away on the mountain. Great price for what it’s worth. The room was nothing special, could use some updating, but it was clean and relaxing. I was disappointed with how the hotel photos portray a river running behind the hotel, but doesn’t show the parking lot and adjacent hotel directly across the other side, but non the less, the sounds of the river are very tranquil and if you walk to the edge of the property, there are two stone walkways that lead down to the actual river and that area is very beautiful. The pool and hot tub are really awesome. Didn’t get a chance to try the restaurant but I heard it’s pretty good overall we would totally choose to stay there again!"
