We're trying to determine which accommodation we like best at the lodge, so our quest brought us back to a room in the historic portion of the lodge where we have stayed many times before. The beautifully paneled room with reclaimed wood furniture looked out onto the front lawn. Hubby noted that he forgot how small the room was. It is cozy, but it is an old lodge, so it's not like the hotel side of the lodge. The bathroom is very small with a pipe that knocked often. (We shut the bathroom door so we didn't hear it.) A small metal shelf sits above the sink, but it tips downward so anything round will roll. A closet across from the bathroom had ample space and hangers for clothes. The original hardware on the bathroom and closet doors is beautiful. The bed is comfortable, the heating unit worked beautifully and a ceiling fan provides a nice breeze. We could hear our neighbors who had children who only spoke in shriek and liked to run and bounce, but thankfully, they fell asleep by 10 and slept in. I did discover a previous guest had left behind underthings in a drawer and reported it to the front desk. A small coffee maker is in the room and the housekeeper noticed we used the caffeinated coffee and gave us three for the next morning, which is much appreciated. We absolutely love the lodge, but are checking out a cabin setting next, not because there is anything wrong with our lodge room, but because we are on a quest.
