The hotel provides a trail with free access. I found it beautiful. Our bungalow was two stories. It had a bed and bath on each level. The space heaters were a step above my expectations. They provided a portable dryer for our damp clothing.
The restaurant prices were a bit high. Though the quality justified it.
