We had a great time at this restaurant. The view is amazing as most have said. The sound of the rushing water is very soothing. Initially when we arrived we wanted to be outside. We were pretty disappointed that couldn’t happen. However it ended up being the best thing. As soon as that sun sets, it really cools off. By the time we got midway through our dinner, a once packed patio was almost completely cleared. We wouldn’t have been prepared for that so sitting inside at a table for 2 right next to an open window is a pretty nice spot as you can see from my photos. Our food was very good. I had the scallops and my wife got a salad. I probably could have eaten 2 dishes of the scallops they were that good. I was definitely glad we made this stop. Service wise it was good. Nothing to complain about. We were treated well.

What a find!! Beautiful setting, great selection of dishes and drinks and amazing service! We had dinner here and now planning to come back for lunch on the deck overlooking the river. Can’t wait!

Great place to go for a meal! We were in town with some friends, staying down the road and came here with 6 people. Restaurant as more and accommodating, since we had a birthday at our table too. All the food was very good - higihlghlvy recommend their cocktails as well, I loved their take on a Hot Tottie. Our server was also fantastic! Very attentive, give us updates on food/drinks coming out, and helpful when it came to ordering some wine. Will be back when we're in town again soon! We DID NOT stay here.

The total meal was great. The salad you see was $11. and not at all what shows on line? The bar was noisy and as the manager explained, this is my normal. The waiter was good and over worked but How old is cool. They comped us for the salad and two drinks. Yes we would go back again.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Thanks for your interest in our precautions! Masks are mandated throughout the property except when Guests are in their hotel rooms or seated at their tables. Staff are wearing gloves when appropriate, disinfecting and sanitizing all high touch surfaces and bathrooms on a regular schedule. Digitial menus are available, as well as sanitized laminated menus when dining on-site. Online ordering for takeout has been our main draw. Dining tables are limited and spaced apart, and we are only hosting outside patio dining, with a few limited indoor tables with all of the windows open for the holiday weekends as needed. Lodge rooms are treated with heightened cleaning and disinfecting as well as UV-C lights being used between guests, and offering to keep the room vacant for a night before arrival as an extra layer of precaution. Our procedures are posted throughout the property and we are adhering to all instructions given by the local Health Department. Stay well!

Is breakfast included in the room rates?

Isabelle Beauchamps | Feb 2, 2019
Exception ELLE | Feb 3, 2019

Hi Isabelle, thanks for your online reservation! Please refer to the email confirmation we just sent to you, but to publicly answer your question: breakfast is included only during peak season which starts December 21 this year. Your lodge rates are lower to compensate for not having breakfast in the off-season, but the room is equipped with a Keurig coffee maker and there is a local breakfast cafe around the corner within walking distance. Thanks again!
