My visit to the resort was a mixed bag. The breathtaking views were a highlight, and I loved the outdoor activities available, such as the zip line and paddle boating. However, some aspects, like the dining experience and underwhelming service at the golf course, left much to be desired. Overall, I enjoyed my stay but felt there were areas that could use some improvement.

The Inn of the Mountain Gods is a picturesque resort nestled in the mountains, boasting stunning views and a clean environment. However, the high prices for food and services were disappointing, and I encountered some significant service issues during my stay. While the room was nice, the overall experience felt mismanaged in several areas.

My overall experience was mixed during my stay at the resort. While the room was very nice and comfortable with a stunning view, the service left much to be desired, especially during check-in and check-out. The food quality at the buffet was average, and the pool facilities could use some more attention. It’s a shame because this place has great potential.

Inn of the Mountain Gods boasts incredible amenities and breathtaking outdoor views, making it a prime spot for both adventure and relaxation. While the zip-lining experience was a highlight, the overall service left much to be desired, with a lack of attention from the staff. The dining options were available, yet failed to impress, particularly with seating arrangements at Wendell's. Overall, it’s a mixed experience, balancing stunning location and amenities against inconsistent service and dining quality.

Our stay at the resort was quite memorable with incredible views and a lavish suite that made us feel right at home. We appreciated the effort put into keeping everything clean and comfortable, but the customer service left something to be desired with a few staff members seeming less than enthusiastic. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a getaway, especially for couples looking for a romantic evening, although there's room for improvement in the service department.

We were fortunate to stay in a spacious Royal Suite with stunning lake and mountain views. It featured two balconies, which were perfect for enjoying the sunsets and morning coffee. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, but the main bathroom could use a shelf in the shower for toiletries.
