After our hike, we stopped for a cocktail on their outdoor patio. Beautiful view and amazing service from Destiny! Wish we had stayed to eat outside, but we went into the main lodge instead where service was pitiful. See separate review if interested

We had Ana for our service and she was GREAT. Above and beyond service. She was so thoughtful and helpful for my daughter and me. The food was pretty fresh and good although a little pricey. You cannot beat the views. Great local beer available too!
