They kindly let us have early check in. Their usual check in is 4pm which to me is two hours too late! They accommodated our request and we had access at 2pm. Also, I had called the lodge after booking on booking.com and discussed the room types with the manager. She then kindly reserved us a lovely corner room we had talked about. How nice is that! The adirondack chairs outside are randomly placed and lovely to relax in the beauty. There is not really lounging area inside except in the rooms. All the waiters in both the cafe and in the restaurant we very professional as well as friendly.

They don't have a real sauna as they don't like the temperature over 136 degrees. So if you go, manage your expectations. They kept asking through booking.com and on check in if we had a pet but I had already told them we were bringing a dog and they were delighted. So why on check in do we get water glasses but the room no water bowl for the dog. Then we asked for a bowl and it took quite some time to receive it. It is a lovely lodge and good restaurant but it is more a park hotel than 4 or 5 star service.

The most attentive, wonderful staff helped make our stay a five star stay. Although the rooms are a bit narrow, they are luxurious and beautifully appointed along with many windows offering beautiful views of the park. The bathroom was just as luxurious as any five star hotel I've visited. The hotel itself as well as the grounds are beautiful with plenty of hiking and dining options. The hotel has two art galleries which we thoroughly enjoyed. We can't wait to return to this beautiful, unique hotel. Many thanks to the outstanding, friendly staff.

We adored staying here! Rich with history, a beautiful property with things to do and varying activities, dining options, a bar, and a lovely accommodation. We enjoyed doing the self-guided history tour offered in the building. Then finishing our day in the games room with complementary snacks provided bonding as a family! The property is stunning and you can spend so much time exploring with complementary bikes or just walking around. They have pickleball and yoga and other lovely activities. It would be amazing for any group retreat! We would highly recommend coming to this hidden oasis just north of Seattle.

Nothing honestly, everyone was so lovely we interacted with, and dining and beverage experiences were lovely. Nothing to complain about!

Loved the hotel. It was fun to walk around with a guide to point out the different artwork and learn about the history of the hotel. The room was so small for the nightly rate. maintenance came to replace our coffee maker and said rooms were so small because it was the original layout of the dorm rooms. FYI, you want a microwave you need to request one.

Small room for price. We wouldn’t have booked here, but we decided to because it was our 28th anniversary. We expected no feathers/down due to allergies and they didn’t provide hypoallergenic as requested by email. Also, expect to pay $10/night for parking, even if you have a state park pass. With the parking fee, plus resort fee. total additional fees $38/night.

Beautiful property , gorgeous surrounding, nice restraint, very friendly and pleasant staff, clean, extremely quiet..BUT!!! Bed is way too soft, almost like a hammock, got a back ache, was considering sleeping on a floor. With the firmer mattress overall score would be 10+++++++

Hammock mattress, way too soft, not good for anyone back

We loved the expansive grounds and the thoughtful design of the hotel. Easy hike down to the lake and very quiet and peaceful.

Shuttles to the local wineries are not available on weekdays. I didn’t know we had to call and set up reservations for the shuttle in advance. The room was a little small but it was okay since we only stayed for one night.

great vintage styling- full of art and history- classy and comfortable- excellent meal at Cedar and Elm

it’s a little confusing where to check in, if there is self park or not, not great exterior signs when I arrived at night

close to the city but felt like you were far away! pretty trails to the beach, three restaurants to choose from! had a great massage at the spa- highly recommend!

our room was above the restaurant and it was super noisy all night and early in the morning.

The staff including the valet were wonderful. Suggested places to visit as well as gave directions. We can’t say enough about our visit. Friendly, helpful and welcoming. The grounds were manicured and lush. Definitely 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Can’t think of a thing.

The food and service was great. The bar area is very convenient for ordering food and drinks.

No heaters at the wedding tent.
