The room was very adequately equipped with everything I needed, very clean and updated as well. Jackson, in charge at the lodge, was very helpful regarding any questions or needs. I loved the location right on the lake surrounded by pine. The ski trails connected to the lake and were easily accessible. I hope to return next year!
