Beautiful location up in the mountains with good hiking options. Dinners at the main restaurant were excellent and staff were great. If you regularly go off site, it becomes inconvenient to get from hotel to your car. While our room had ample storage, it was very small and there doesn’t appear to be any sound proofing as you can hear any noise or conversations from neighbouring rooms.

I didn't like the property for the summer. It was inconveniently located over the mountain with no air conditioning in summer was awful. The property and rooms look old. We asked for a replacement of a light bulb in our room, and it wasn't done.I won't stay in this property in the future.
