"Tracey and Thomas are so very lovely and welcoming and friendly. We loved their lodge - beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and it is very clean. What we loved the most was talking to them about the area and their family. We loved our stay!"
"When visiting this part of the country, it is very remote, and the park hotel was the perfect spot away from everything. While the rooms are small, they are comfortable and easily accessible. The restaurant also is very good and has breathtaking views of the mountainside from their patio area. While there is nothing really around other than a small convenience store, the hotel more than makes up for that with their excellent service. Would highly recommend!"
