There aren't enough ways to say how incredible this lodge and the owners are! We took a wrong turn (take the second turn onto Mine Rd, not the first!), and our truck got stuck a few minutes away due to the heavy snow. However Margaret was so kind and offered to come pick us up and drive us to the lodge. Then the next morning, Andrew dug his truck out and came to help us get out. They went above and beyond to help us...

However Margaret was so kind and offered to come pick us up and drive us to the lodge. Then the next morning, Andrew dug his truck out and came to help us get out. They went above and beyond to help us, and made our stay so enjoyable. We ended up extending for a second night and we were so glad we did. Don't think twice, you will love this place. A million times better than an AirBnb. We hope to go back soon!

My husband and I stayed here in March for our honeymoon, and it was an absolute winter wonderland! The couple who owns the B&B made us feel so welcomed, even preparing a dinner the first night that tasted like it came straight from a 5-star Michelin restaurant. Every morning, we were treated to a delightful breakfast with fun, delicious surprises. The whole experience was magical, and we can’t wait to return...

This place truly made our honeymoon unforgettable!

    I can’t say enough about this amazing place! The views from the home are breathtaking, the service from Margaret was top notch, the furnishings were divine, the room was beautiful, comfortable and so welcoming. Imagine staying at a wealthy family members house in the mountains that has impeccable taste, this is the place. Yes it is a bit off the beaten path, but that’s why you would go! The rooms were so inviting and incredibly clean. Difficult to find a place that is beautiful, clean and inviting. So many hotels have the cheapest towels, bed linens, not here, they are expensive and you can tell. Margaret was so friendly, helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Having coffee available at 6:30am was also a welcome treat for those that wake up early. My husband and I will definitely be returning at least once a quarter, just to relax and get away!
