This was BY FAR the best place we've ever stayed. It's not just the beauty of of the surroundings or the views, it was the total experience. The staff was truly unparalleled and made you feel like both family and royalty. The dining experience is the best I've ever had hands down. The food was absolutely amazing, their chefs astounding, and service like no other. I didn't want to leave.

A great room in a fantastic location. Absolutely superb service by all the staff that we came across. We were, however, disappointed by the truncation of the menu - no beef/venison on the main menu - and we had been so looking forward to trying both. The staff told us that this was because the hotel was about to shut down for the winter. Such was the rest of our experience during this stay, we will be back next year, hopefully with beef and venison restored to the menu.
