Hiking up the mountain in Adams for the annual ramble is always fun. The lodge use to make it fun with hot chocolate, milled apple cider, and snacks ALL DAY for people in the lodge. This year, on a cold and rainy day, check for milled apple cider in the cafe and they had none and weren’t very kind about it. As we were leaving the person told the people ordering food “You need to hurry and make a decision, we are closing breakfast” Why on earth would you close for an hour till lunch on the day of the ramble, and also not have hot chocolate and cider? Then be rude to paying customers It has gone down hill at the lodge unfortunately. If you’re miserable and don’t want to be working there, then find something else to do. ESPECIALLY paying customers.

This place is at a great location, with a great view, and a rustic cabin vibe. This is a great place for those who are looking to get a way for the weekend or for those who are day hiking. The prices alone >$200/night is worth the view and convenience of the location if you’re backpacking. However, there were so many things that made me think “what a shame”. 1. Shared bathroom/showers, which honestly is not the end of the world as they were clean. However, for the price I thought having a private bathroom would be nice. 2. Dinner. We had to let them know what time we would be dropping by. When we did come by the dining area at the time we arranged for, they were out of almost all the food so we ended up getting something we didn’t order, very small portion size (i.e. a tablespoon of mashed potatoes), cold dish. We ended up paying $100 for these two less than average plates and two beverages. 3. We were told breakfast would be served at 8am. We arrived, along with a lot of the other guests, only to wait 20 minutes for one tub of yogurt, some cut up fruits, and a half gallon of milk with cereal. They did bring out some muffins which were good, but was not enough for all of the guests present. Again, the price of the room I believe was worth the location and view. However, I was very disappointed about the food, service (staff seemed very frazzled, wasn’t sure of how much things costs and where things were), and communication.

A beautiful little place to stay. I stayed here in June 2024 as part of a return trip to the Northeast state high points. I booked a private room, which had a bed that was nice and cozy. Had a delicious breakfast as well. My only complaint is that the showers were shared, but when the building is this old, there is only so much that can be done to correct it. All in all, a nice little stay. Friendly hosts bent over backward to make sure I had WiFi for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals that night. Now, I have stayed at hotels on all three state high points that have them (Cheaha Mountain AL and Magazine Mountain AR are the other two). Highly recommended.

I have never used a room, so I can't judge that. During the summer, they do offer nice sit-down dinners by reservations. Located on the top of the mountain with great views. They close for the late fall to late spring since the access roads are closed. This particular trip, I couldn't go inside since they were closed, I was just snowmobiling by it.

Extremely rude staff. Sign outside clearly states open for breakfast at 8 am but when people are trying to enter they are met with a locked door. Minutes later a rude man comes out and asks "what do you want" and we ask what time they open the sign says 8, he says let me check and the comes back and says they won't open until 11 and slams the door. Saw some guests coming out who said they were let in but they kicked out by another rude worker. This is clearly a trend judging by other reviews which is a shame because it seems like it could be a nice spot if the staff was up to par.
