The location was beautiful.

The bathroom floor constantly felt cold and wet even though it was not wet. Very weird.

"Staying at the D.B.L. was an exceptional lodging experience."

Staying at the D.B. Lodge was a wonderful and refreshing experience. My husband and I are often disappointed with our stays (on-line pictures don't compare to reality) but not with Dancing Bear it exceeded our expectations. The staff seemed to be anticipating our arrival like important guest. When we got into our modern style cabin, we were so excited, clean, comfortable and well equipped. There were 2 lovely bathrobes for when you got out of the jacuzzi or shower. The cabin was set in a quiet serene area. Breakfast at the Dancing Bean coffee house was fantastic too! I can't wait to visit again.

The only thing that was problematic, because of my allergies, was the cleaning products used had a strong floral scent. However, that's just a personal issue I deal with in most places.

Peace and quiet. Pet friendly. Awesome breakfast included. Natural scenery. Beautiful little cabin.

Bed was very hard. Mirror in bathroom needs better lighting. There were no steps to get into hot tub.
