The place was incredible, the vibe at the bar/gameroom/back porch with couch’s and fire pits was so fun. Every inch of the grounds are really tastefully designed. I wish I’d stayed longer and definitely one of the coolest places I’ve stayed.

This hotel exceeded my expectations. The esthetic creates a feel of warmth and happiness. The lobby/bar/general store leads out to a wonderful out door area that is such a Flagstaff feel. So much seating/fire pits. Beautiful pool and hot tub. Staff is lovely and I will never stay anywhere else in Flagstaff
