“The setting is truly remarkable, offering those expansive mountain vistas, particularly from the restaurant deck where the sunsets are quite something. While the rustic charm is evident, and the food generally receives praise for being tasty with some healthy options, a few rooms could use a refresh to match the location's natural beauty. Still, the courteous staff and proximity to hiking trails certainly contribute to an experience that many find worth returning for.”
