Staff and service was great in an amazing location. Restaurant and bar had really good food (fresh homemade salsa) and great beverage selections. Pool and hot tub shown in pictures is closed permanently; guest room cleanliness was pretty poor - fortunately the bed was clean. Location was great.

Bathroom kind of nasty. Peeling paint, mold, water stains. Carpets dirty and somehow bubbled up as you walked over it.

Pros:

Pretty good experience overall. Friendly staff and good service. Buildings are a little worn but function fine. Make sure to read check-in instructions before leaving home because you likely won’t have cell service here. Internet works well once you’ve checked in.

Pros:

Beautiful location. Property has potential, but dirty and needs a lot of maintenance. For $170/night we expected more. King bed was two singles pushed together. Big gap in the center of the bed. Everything was dirty in the halls and building entrances. A bird nest over the front door -bird crap you had to walk through.
Bar/Grill was mediocre. Bar service was good, but slow because only one worker running hard. Breakfast was good. Service was poor. 9 of us came in four were served reasonably, two more in 45 minutes and the last in 1 hr 20 minutes. Saw others getting up and leaving.
Overall, it served it's purpose, but pretty spendy for what we got.

Pros:

We were very disappointed in our stay. We have stayed at the Wlk View before and loved it. The place is just run down. There's no staff if you have a late check in. There's a note to get your key from a white drop box by the bar. Upon arrival, no key. Went into thw bar and waited 45 minutes for the bartender to get my key to me. (And it wasn't busy) Got to the room and the door looked like it had been kicked in. Door handle didn't turn all the way. No ice or vending machines or in room fridges or microwaves. Oyr shower leaked all over the bathroom floor. We didn't have enough towels after cleaning that up. Asked for towels 2 days in a row before finally catching a maid in the supply room and getting them from her. The pool and hot tub room were shut down. Not sure why but it breaks our hearts to see a place we have had so ma y great memories, become so poorly neglected.

That being said, when you find someone who works there they are really nice.

Pros:

Was expecting a better quality place given the price. The WiFi didn't work and there was no cell service in the area. Dated room but somewhat clean. The parking area was a gravel mess from all the 4 wheelers. Would recommend staying.

Pros:

If you are looking for a warm quiet place in the mountains this place is for you. The lodge is currently under new ownership and they are trying to make this place competitive. The pool and hot tub were not functioning.dinner was seeved in the bar. The room had no fridge and for a king bed we were given a handicap room making the showering experience awkward. The staff was friendly. They did have a really cool rustic lodge and atv rental. No cell service, but based on the location, that is to be expected. Absolutely the quietest stay we have had anywhere.
Once they finish the updates and remodel this will be an absolute must visit lodge.

Pros:

Upon arrival there was no clerk, the office was closed, 4 PM, the key was in an envelope and no WIFI password, this area has no cell service. No ice machine. The overall appearance of the property and room is extremely poor. The paint was peeling off of the walls in the bathroom. No microwave or fridge. 2 nights with all fees was $360. Would not rush right back, sorry. NO pets were allowed and I can not figure out why, at least my pet could of kept me occupied and happy during this stay.
