Very nice stay
It was so cute and cozy. Will definitely be coming back. I loved that they provided a small box fan since i always sleep with white noise. Everything was clean, and working, and best of all-you felt safe. The only thing i must say is the beds are on the firm side, but thats a preference thing so still 5 stars from me👍 OH YEAH, there boone dinner has really nice workers and fast service. Loved it all!!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Would have loved it but there were several dead bugs in the room, the beds were pretty uncomfortable, the heat didn’t seem to work properly and the staff was less than helpful. The limestone mine with kayaking was fun. The ark is close so we visited that.

The only negative thing about this location was that it walls seemed thin. You could hear the people in the other rooms. It would be nice to have ice available as well. We enjoyed our stay. I would stay there again. Thank you tjb

We were looking for a place to stay for 1 night on our way to another destination. This was one of the cheaper places to stay, and I'd stay there again. The rooms were small, but clean and quiet. They had a fridge, microwave and coffee machine.

This was an awesome location. The lodge was very clean. The only complaint was no wifi because the location being in the mountains got no signal for our phones. And this is not a complaint but a suggestion of night stands to charge phones on.
