This lodge is like a little piece of history and run in a no-fuss manner reminiscent of travel lodges I’ve visited in National Parks over the years. Run by friendly, capable staff and situated near the entrance to Canyon de Chelly, it was the perfect place for me to stay. I hope to return soon, but stay longer next time!
