The stay was amazing! We had a few little hiccups but they were fixed immediately. Everyone was so nice! My only complaint was that the wifi in the cabins was just bad. Not that our vacation was centered around tv, but we wanted to watch the Stanley Cup Finals one night and our ROKU wouldn't hook up at all.

The room was very nice, well maintained. A little cool in the morning as the heat did not work. The restaurant was terrible. Ordered a grilled cheese sandwich, it was as hard as a rock, I could not eat it. Breakfast was not much better. I broke a tooth eating the bacon.

Joseph

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were extremely friendly, they even sent a btl of wine to the cabin as a birthday gift...So kind of them... The cabin was very clean...Only reason i gave it an overall 3 stars was because the cabin had an old musty odour i'm assuming dutch is because of the age of the cabins... As well, it's a little bit of a tourist trap, lots of buses and people pulling in to walk the Canyon and I do prefer privacy versus lots of tourists..Hence the 3 stars, but overall rooms were clean. Shower was hot. The staff were very friendly.
