Staying at the Taharaa Mountain Lodge was a wonderful experience. The views were incredible, and the breakfast each morning with varied options was a perfect way to start each day. We greatly enjoyed the Stanley Steamer room!

We will only have our wedding here again if Toby is working. Toby helped me plan the most memorable engagement! I travel frequently and I have never experienced the hospitality that Toby gave us. We also had a service dog, that was welcomed. The breakfast in morning was fantastic and the morning coffee was so nice. Thank you, Toby!
