I stood there last month for our anniversary. It was so nice and quiet. The staff were nice. If you want to eat you have to go into town there was a restaurant across the street but it was close the day I was there. The lodge is close to the park

Strong points are: beautiful views; spacious room; quiet; clean, staff cheerful and eager to please. Weak points were: shower/tub requires a mat or something to avoid slipping on the floor of the bathtub; owner will surely get sued if not fixed. Secondly, the TV requires 2 remotes; instructions given were totally inadequate. Matthew and I worked together to produce a clear simple instruction sheet which he says he will distribute to the other rooms.
