Storm Mountain lodge delivers on the rustic cabin concept to a fault. The cabin itself shows very well in a photo but they are very small and cramped, ours had an awkward layout. There is one tiny sink outside the bathroom, nowhere to put toiletries, no kitchenette. We were constantly juggling stuff. The furniture inside and out was in worn out condition. They really emphasize the wood burning fireplace, but when we arrived the cabin was extremely smokey and when we lit a fire it did not vent properly and we set off a fire alarm (and no one checked on us or anything). The issue of being directly on a highway (which they do warn about) was not as bad as it seemed on arrival, the highway is quiet at night. But for such a gorgeous location and mountain view, enjoying it seemed sub optimal. The highlight for us was the restaurant, the food is fantastic, just make sure to book ahead. We didn't really have any contact with staff outside the restaurant, and the front desk was closed when we left at 730am. I feel like the whole thing needs some maintenance and love, we would not stay here again.
