The room was new, clean and fresh. Large and size. The staff was wonderful. It looks like the property is undergoing some renovation on the outside, but overall did not interfere with her stay. Property is located on a busy road so you do hear a lot of road noises. It was conveniently located to the places we wanted to go.

A Diamond in the Ruff

I took my wife there for her Birthday. We needed to find a nice place away from the hectic city and crowds from our visit to the Boardwalk. We stayed 2 nights and this place did not disappoint. It has a little cafe, a store and a nice bar that has live bands on Friday and Saturday. We were greeted by the Hotel front desk person with big smiles and friendly personality.He recommended several places to eat and reviewed a map of the area for us. He also invited us to eat at the cafe which also delvers to the Bar on premise. This place is a Diamond in the ruff..

This lodge is in a beautiful setting! It has a very interesting historic bar and resort adjacent. The bar is open for limited hours on the weekends and often has live music. Photos of the resort in its heyday are in the lobby. It’s very close to two small mountain towns with lots of restaurants and hiking. We stayed for three enjoyable nights.

Beautiful setting and clean and comfortable if starkly furnished room. It was missing some basic amenities that have become standard in the industry like a coffee maker and guide to close by dining options.

Very unique property. Spacious room. Ate in classic “diner”. Peeked into spacious lounge area -separate building with fireplace fire where they had a bar/lounge. Mini market down by the rooms. Our room had a very long walk out on balcony with a small table and 2 chairs. Not sure why but this rate was less than most in the area. Fantastic!
