Photos and price hinted at luxury lodge. The room was huge with bed, lots of pillows, towels, and big whirlpool tub and shower. Great log cabin, western feel. The Bob’s restaurant downstairs was really, really good. Super country comfort food. Locals and staff are like being on the Yellowstone Ranch with Rip, Beth, and John Sutton.
Downside it is directly on the border crossing road with no security entrance.
The best part is that the lodge is the nearest hotel to Mount Baker. The drive to Heiliotrope Ridge Trailhead is beyond incredible. It’s a 4 mile winding hike through dense forest to Coleman Glacier. Serious hikers only! Road is narrow and dangerous!
