This place isn’t about the “property”. It’s part of the starkly rugged and beautiful Gammon Ranges.

Nice to get a sorry and mean it
Wonderful location and had a great 8 day stay doing lots of hiking. However for the entire stay we had a fridge that didn't work. Complained daily but not once did anyone bother come to look. Just said sorry. Well we lost over $100 worth of food and ended up having to eat at their restaurant 4 times ($100 each time)as nowhere to restock food and ran out of long life food. If it wasn't for our own car fridge we wouldn't have had cold water. Won't rely on a fridge anywhere again. 😕 It seemed no one in charge. Staff just leave notes.
