A unique, fun place to stay. Hotel staff was very accomodating in helping us to have a room that met my disability needs. Shuttle met us at railroad and took care of getting our luggage to our room.

We booked our stay directly and not through Holland America. Check in was easy, the lobby nice, but the restaurants did not seem very interested in serving us at 8:30 pm when dinner service ended at 10. Then when we got to our room in the Canyon lodge, we noticed the worn down state of the rooms. We had a thermostat that controlled nothing. We couldn’t even find a vent in the room. The bathroom could use some attention too. Hopefully Holland America can upgrade the rooms as they become more familiar with the property. The second day, we wanted to buy sandwiches from the cafe in the lobby at 12:30pm. There was a sign saying “will return”. We had to ask for the manager to look for someone after ten minutes went by and no employees appeared. It also seemed no one in the lobby knew what people across the hall were doing. Someone finally came and the sandwiches were expensive and not very good. The chocolate chip cookie was delicious. All in all, I think we would pay more to stay at one of the nicer properties next time.

We liked the friendly, relaxed feel of the resort. All our interactions with staff were very positive, especially Martine at reception, Nick at the bar & Mary-Anne at the door/ tour area. Easy parking and central to the village (especially for those without a car).

It was a good comfortable stay. We also ate at the hotel’s steak house restaurant and had a good experience. Had to use a resort shuttle bus to get to room at Canyon Lodge.
