Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The place was a dump - we didn't stay!
The place was a dump! They lost our reservation and the people to check us in were gone. The first floor of the “lodge” was a single building, managed by the local rafting company (there weren’t any rafters scheduled) with bunk beds on the first floor (not at all like the picture) and a shared bathroom. I heard from the “maid” (she had a housecoat on) that the second floor was better but we were put off by all the bees and bugs everywhere on the first floor. I can only imagine what the beds were like! I would encourage anyone considering this property to stay away!
