The Gant

The Gant

10/10 Excellent
"The staff at The Gant are the best thing about it. All are friendly, helpful, and very professional. We were so grateful to have daily housekeeping service. The breakfast at the café was only so-so in terms of the food, and equally as expensive as all the other cafes in town. I would have thought it could produce simple meals at a slightly lower price."

Annabelle Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I never write reviews, but I couldn’t leave without reviewing this property and saying thank you to the staff. They went above and beyond helping our little family when I made a mistake in booking. We came off the four pass loop exhausted and dirty just to realize I had made the reservation for the wrong date. Well, I’m sure it is not always possible for them to do this, they were able to move my reservation so I did not have to pay for the room twice. We really enjoyed the hot tub on the second floor. There air condition worked great.(we had stated a nearby place right before the pass at a similar price that did not have air-conditioning.) We really enjoyed staying here."
