Fantastic lodge with a vintage feel. Very spacious and pet friendly. Delicious restaurant.
Pros:

Loved the old-timey feel of the lodge. The staff and restaurant were both excellent and the rooms were gigantic. We saw deer out back so that was cool but were close enough to town to enjoy the local attractions. The driveway was a little scary when it iced over but was still accessible. I do wish the rooms had full length mirrors, but other than that our stay was excellent.

Cons:

I would've liked to have had full length mirrors.

Pros:

Great location, close to everything, nice restaurant. All staff super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Cement floor with no carpet and only a beanbag chair. A real armchair would be nice. Also paid the upcharge for steak bites on a large salad and recd 5 small pieces roughly the size of sugar cubes.

Rhode's is always a pleasant stay. They always meet expectations in customer service and the vibe in general.

Lovely facilities, great vibe, kind staff
Pros:

The staff was amazing. We booked the room bc earlier that day my son had a snowboarding accident & broke his arm. He was released from the ER before we could get there (5 hour drive). He called me from the hotel lobby, I was able to talk with staff & he was allowed to go to the room before our arrival. I cannot overstate how kind & wonderful this was. This humanitarian action made a very stressful situation more bearable and helped my son greatly.

It was great! I loved the beautiful building and the cleanliness the place carried itself. The scenes were great for the
Pros:

It was accessible and the building was very well maintained!

Cons:

I would like to see parking spots assigned to some rooms, I had a two month old and had to walk a few extra steps because someone parked right in front of our room.
