"This hotel was such a great find! It’s very family friendly, and so conveniently located! We were there in March for a snowshoeing trip. What first attracted us to it was the fact that it is dog friendly! And I mean, dog friendly! Right inside the door was gear for the dog plus a biscuit! We had the king suite which was wonderful. The bed was comfy and the room had so many thoughtful extras: a flashlight, a power strip, picnic ware, and plenty of fluffy white towels! We’ve already booked...
