This property was fantastic. The room was great. The bed was absolutely amazing and I enjoyed dinner at the roadhouse across the street in walking distance. Unfortunately, when I arrived at 9 PM, I was not allowed in the restaurant or bar that was on site even though I arrived at 9 o’clock, and I had also called ahead to let them know I would be there right around closing, but no one would go the extra mile or help along on the road traveller and for the price they charge you think they would.

A spacious and attractive lobby makes an inviting impression. Our room, with a balcony, faced the back side of the hotel. It offered a beautiful view of the grounds and mountains. The dining room and outdoor seating has the same great view. The staff was gracious and accommodating.
