Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property itself is beautiful and well maintained. The staff members however were not well trained. It felt as though no one was able to answer any question that I had. I also felt that the establishment rules were ridiculous. You were only allowed to eat breakfast outside if you had a dog.

Horrible never happened before. We got the key went to the room, the door was open and the room was not cleaned. We drove for 2 hours to get there and spend time with friends and we ended up going back because they had no more rooms to accommodate us. I have video of the room how it was. They say that they call Expedia to refund us back. Waiting for my refund

A slice of heaven. From Buddys warm greeting to everyone on staff they are just the nicest, most witty and welcoming staff I’ve ever seen, without being pretentious. The chef hits it out of the park, creative and expertly prepared and freshly sourced. We will be back to relax and decompress again.A wonderful experience sinking into feather beds and Pendleton robes.

If all was as good as the food, we would be back.

The good: excellent food, nice service, generally pleasant spaces. The bad: odd management rules, automatic tipping in the fine print on some meals but not all, resort fee each day, poor design decisions, deferred maintenance and not great craftsmanship. Suggestions: Allow anyone to eat on the porch for breakfast if there is plenty of space, or allow staff use their brains to evaluate only one dog on property so you don't need to hold 18 porch tables for that one dog. Don't make 60-year-olds crouch over a coffee table to have a hamburger, because of some rule when the place is mostly empty. Landscape the "swimming hole" by moving the large loose rocks out of an actual swimming path, so it isn't hazardous. Move the mini-split condenser away from the hot tub, since HVAC noise is not at all relaxing. Shake out the dusty lamps, replace the tilework around the soap dish, replace the felt on the pool table, and put real coffee and coffee mugs and bowls in the Chalet.

Disliked: Amenities
Staff are lovely. Enthusiastic. Friendly. Grounds are nice. Quiet and peaceful with a short walking trail. We were there mid June and the staff raved about the swimming hole. The water was freezing. Not sure who would be brave enough to swim in the river. Rooms are dated although the staff say they updated but kept the original look. Large enough room but no where to put 2 suitcases except on the bed. No table in the room for dining or writing. Bathroom was updated though. All common areas, including the main lounge are musty. The biggest issue with this place is the dining room. The menu is very limited. 4 entree options that come with just the piece of meat. Sides are extra. The pasta option was unedible. The 2 veg options, snowpeas and asparagus were quite good. Meal was $140 No dessert. . Wine was ' $20 a glass. The mini bar sold a small bag of popcorn for $7 when the high end coffee shop nearby sold it for $3. The dining room does not open till 8 am. No place to get coffee beforehand. We even told staff we were early risers and wanted to be hiking before 8. Still no coffee provided. There is nothing close by. We had to drive 1/2 hour away to get coffee at 7 and then drive a half hour back to go hiking. We picked this spot for its proximity to the trails. But unless you either want to drive out of your way or wait till late to hike, we would not suggest this place. Better. To stay where you can get some breakfast earlier and drive to the trails.
