Nice cabin room

The room had a very mountain feel. Very nice decor. Only issue was that both beds felt like sleeping in a bowl. Maybe broken in the middle? Besides the bed the room was very nice. Restaurant was also very good and reasonably priced.

we wanted our 8 year old grandson to have a cabin in the woods experience and this cozy, quiet, place was fabulous and didn't disappoint! The food was excellent, the staff were friendly, serviceable and the overall experience was beyond our expectations. It was hard to leave!
