Pros (+) Location was great and scenery spectacular. Food was average. Staff was excellent and responsive to requests.
Cons (-) Rooms are small, noise from adjoining rooms can be an issue.

Pros (+) The rooms are more spacious than princess lodge, you get more for your money for sure. Just prepare for early check out.
Cons (-) Why is the check out time 10am? Most places is 11 or noon. If you have kids you can be getting up early to get ready and rush to check out considering the places to rent a room are a ways away from the main lodge.. Should change the time.

Pros (+) The "square" was relaxing with great music, ambience and really good food. The solo singer/guitarist, Tim, is a super entertainer with a great voice.
