Really enjoyed the weekend stay. Did not expect this to be one of the best hotels I have stayed at, but they really delivered. The staff treats you like a VIP and these days there aren't many places that can pull that off -- I would call it "affordable luxury". The atmosphere is very relaxed and it is surprising that this place is so close to Seattle. The lodge is only two stories tall and the decor is very nice. Lots of wood and the rooms themselves are beautiful. Just walking around the property is nice and the Sammamish river trail is close. The big WA winery has an outpost across the street -- we actually just walked to it (needs a crosswalk though). Hope to get back soon to explore more wineries.
