The Trailsman Lodge was interesting from the start. We got a text saying they moved us to another property 25 mins away, but then upon reaching out to Expedia, were told the supposed water issues they were having with the room were fixed. We checked in, and the location was ideal. The room itself was alright, bed was clean, and spacious. The washroom was decent too, but the hot water was brown. We didn’t get back until extremely late from hiking the Skyline Trail so we didn’t notice until we went to shower. And I’m not talking slightly tinted, more like merky, tan coloured brown. We were so tired at that point we just sucked it up and went to bed. Free breakfast though which was a bonus.

The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful, and the overall experience was fine, but the age of the facilities was showing through, and some things felt a little dated and run down.
