Chris is the front office manager of the lodge. Her customer service is excellent. I recommended they mention that not only do they have a nice hot tub; they also offered a sauna. And during the winter they provide a complementary breakfast. The place is very safe, quiet and clean. The room was very spacious. Very good heating system and hot water. Very central location.
