It was ok. The location is beautiful. The rooms are very run down with no real comfort and with our door being completely broken and unable to lock for the first night we stayed there. The people that work there were very nice.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. While about 1/2 of the cabins at Harmels have gone through bigger renovations. Every other historic cabin on site got new doors, beds, and insultation. We are sorry for the issue with your cabin! We work hard to maintain and fix any issues that occur in these historic cabins on a resort that has been family owned and operated since 1917. We believe we have one of the best staffs around and agree they are all very nice!

This place is not only breathtaking but also the staff knows how to treat their guests so they have the best experience possible. When we requested a fan it was delivered to our cabin within minutes. The restaurant manager came to each table to introduce himself (Nick). The next day we ran into him on the property and he actually remembered my husband's name. We highly recommend dining at Bites and Brews. Be sure to sit outside next to the Taylor River if possible! Overall a very pleasant stay.
