“I found the lodge's setting to be a truly peaceful escape, its quietude a welcome contrast to the nearby town, which was easily reached via the efficient local bus. The rooms themselves felt thoughtfully appointed, many with the rustic charm of a working fireplace and a private balcony. Dining at the on-site restaurant was consistently impressive, a highlight of the stay.”
