Highlander Mountain House
I enjoyed my stay. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Parking is challenging and I had to park offsite a couple of times. Food in the restaurant was good, but overpriced with small portions. Seating was uncomfortable. I would consider returning to stay, but dine elsewhere.

Trailborn Highlands, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy
Clean, spacious great location, friendly staff. But they didn’t always have fresh bread in the morning. And very sparing in their fruit selection. They advertise as having fruit, bread, coffee.
