This place is all about location. The rooms are about as good as a good Days Inn, so they are expensive for what you get.

My wife and I had a wonderful, peaceful relaxing time. This is a beautiful getaway. I highly recommend the elevated pot roast. The breakfast sausage is amazing. Very dog friendly.

View of the peaks was nice as well as the balcony, facility needs major upgrading, bathroom was needing thorough cleaning, rooms were very noisy to neighbors next door, charged my credit card when I had no additional purchases, shuttle to the peaks was pricey for the experience, dining experience was barely average and pricey, overall disappointing given we choose to spend our 50th wedding anniversary here having visited here 50 years ago on our honeymoon.

The property itself is absolutely beautiful. Grounds are pretty well kept and nice view of lake and Peaks of Otter. The bar area is very quaint with friendly staff. Dining room is also nice. The room we had was mediocre at best. It was under the bar area and very noisy until around 10PM. Also, little things like an extremely dirty vent in the bathroom and uncovered electrical box in the bedroom were kind of disappointing, especially considering the price of the room. Hot water in shower was just warm enough to shower comfortably.

The Peaks of Otter Lodge was very clean and the bathrooms, while small, have been updated. The king bed was very comfortable and the view from our second floor room balcony is so beautiful with Abbott Lake and the beautiful peaks to look at. The grounds of the lodge are very well maintained. We especially enjoyed the mile long walkway that goes around the entire lake. Its just a really nice and relaxing location. We will definitely go back in the future!
