| - The lodge itself is ridiculously beautiful, and if I was just reviewing that, it would be 5 stars, but the food was overpriced and just stunk :( We stopped there after a family snow day, after seeing it a dozen times before and always wondering about it. I got the Philly Cheese steak, which was very bland, and if I weren't so hungry playing in the snow with my family for a few hours before, I wouldn't have bothered smothering every bite in ketchup! One of our kids got the Mac and Cheese, which was homemade, not Kraft-in-a-box like most restaurants, and she wouldn't eat it. Ever see an 8 year old turn away Mac and Cheese? We actually sent it back. Our boys got cheeseburgers, which got the same treatment as my sandwich. My love got chicken, which she said was OK.
All in all, with a place that beautiful and relatively remote, they could certainly step up the food a few notches and make it a really memorable experience. As it stands, we will probably not go back to eat there again.
PS - The chairs were really uncomfortable at the table, you walk past giant, cushy chairs in the lobby and fireplace area, to seat you in flat, hard, wedding rental folding chairs. My butt hurt.
