“This lodge strikes a balance akin to a private retreat, with rooms opening onto decks that frame the mountain vistas quite effectively. Hosts clearly take pride in the grounds and the daily breakfast menu, which goes beyond the usual continental fare. It feels like a well-maintained spot, close enough to town but offering a genuine sense of quiet.”
