The hotel was beautiful, our room was clean, quiet and comfortable. We did find some ants on the nightstand which was the only complaint we had. The staff were very attentive and accommodating. I would suggest extending breakfast until 10:00 am. I would recommend staying at the Lodge to all of my family and friends.
