Relaxing stay surrounding beautiful mountains

This was my second trip to the Graves Lodge and I enjoyed the quiet environment, beautiful fall colors all around, and delicious (and generous) breakfast and dinner at the lodge restaurant. Would suggest to walk around this beautiful multiple acre farm and some orchids and try their Apple pie milkshake at the Graves Dali just 2 minutes drive from the lodge. Would certainly visit again.

The scenic views are at a great spot. The cabin was nice and the area is very walkable with mountain views. The downside was the cabin power kept going out a few times more than likely due to over used circuits.

It is indeed a very quiet and beautiful place, it was our first trip to a place like this, my kids really enjoyed visiting the farm, walking by the river and sleeping in a wood house! The bed downstairs really needs an upgrade, the matress is no longer good for a quality rest. The kitchen is really well equiped with almost everything you may need. The place was really clean, the TV works great and having our own real fireplace inside was almost magic! Overall a great experience, we will for sure come back!
