"This lodge is an absolute perfect getaway in the highlands. The staff is incredibly wonderful and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is pleasant. They helped us arrange transportation and always made sure we had a meal. If I have one complaint, it is only that they don’t have AC which can make for some warm rooms even with the windows open. I would recommend this lodge over and over!"
