Almost Perfect
Room was great and had incredibly easy access to everything you would want to see in the area! The only unfortunate part was that the walls were very thin and not very soundproof, so we were woken up at all hours of the night from noisy neighbors. Other than that, the place was great! Rooms were clean and appeared exactly as described, would recommend to others.

Very nice stay
It was so cute and cozy. Will definitely be coming back. I loved that they provided a small box fan since i always sleep with white noise. Everything was clean, and working, and best of all-you felt safe. The only thing i must say is the beds are on the firm side, but thats a preference thing so still 5 stars from me👍 OH YEAH, there boone dinner has really nice workers and fast service. Loved it all!!

Would have loved it but there were several dead bugs in the room, the beds were pretty uncomfortable, the heat didn’t seem to work properly and the staff was less than helpful. The limestone mine with kayaking was fun. The ark is close so we visited that.

The only negative thing about this location was that it walls seemed thin. You could hear the people in the other rooms. It would be nice to have ice available as well. We enjoyed our stay. I would stay there again. Thank you tjb

Watch out for unauthorized credit charges
When I got to the hotel to check in I was handed a key. I asked about when I pay and they said we charged your credit card 2 hours ago. I did not authorize this charge. The reservation said pay at hotel. I was not giving a receipt and there was no internet service anywhere in the area and no Wi-Fi at the hotel so I could not even see what they charged me. When we got into the room overall it was clean, but there was used towels and washcloth left hanging on the hook in the bathroom. The bed and the pillows were quite uncomfortable.

This was an awesome location. The lodge was very clean. The only complaint was no wifi because the location being in the mountains got no signal for our phones. And this is not a complaint but a suggestion of night stands to charge phones on.
