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.

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.
