Couple’s Hunting Trip Reviews
- First Class “OMG where do I begin! This hidden jewel is something you would find in the mountains & resorts of Colorado, Montana or Idaho. No expense has been spared in the luxury accommodations that make you melt right into the bed, & wrap yourself in the luxurious linens. The canopy bed, private balcony, fireplace, jacuzzi bath, & all the luxuries you could ask for are just a step inside this beautiful lodge or lodges depending on which one you pick… & that’s a tough one! Watching the sunset from the Grand Suite in Sunset Valley is heartstopping. Sledding down the hills of Prairie Ridge has been a family favorite. I haven’t even RAVED about the gourmet meals that await you for dinner & breakfast. I swear the top chefs in the country have to be in that kitchen. First the food presentation is simply stunning… something I have only seen in the finest restaurants in New York & London! HOMEMADE… YES… HOMEMADE with all you can eat helpings makes this one of the best places we have been to. So many ways to enjoy this fabulous resort… a couples getaway, a family weekend, a girls getaway, & hunting trip, a wedding, a reunion… anything… you MUST have it here!” -Username LONDON wrote a review on TripAdvisor.com
