In fact, I have to say this was one of the best lodging experiences I've had. They do all the little things right. The rooms were large, yet cozy, and well-cared for, and Rod and Karin are up in the morning, cooking breakfast, and chatting up their visitors. Morning Glory has easy access to Snowshoe (about a 10-15 minute drive). We didn't travel with our pet, but I understand they have pet-friendly rooms. Whether you're coming to ski, or if you're in need of a rustic getaway, this is the place - well done, Rod and Karin!

Regardless we hope to visit again because otherwise its a great place.

They make a hearty breakfast to start you off each day. They are about 6 miles from the Cass railroad so a good choice if your planning to ride the train and maybe explore the other things in the area. We stayed 3 nights and had a great time. They have free Wi-Fi, but there is only a small TV in family room. There is no cell service in the area, but if you have the latest version of software for your phone most now allow phone service over Wi-Fi. This way you can get mail, make a call or text someone in the morning or evening. The rest of the time you should be out exploring the things in the area. Highly recommend if you are staying in the area that you give them a call book a room.

Maybe I stayed at a different place. We arrived at around 7 PM after a miserable drive, and when we got there, it took a while for someone to come to the door. Once Larry answered, I didn't feel as though we were greeted very kindly. Conversation was awkward and uncomfortable (I was there with 3 other people). We were asking for dinner recommendations, and the only one given to us was very vague, and when pushed for further comment, Larry did not seem to want to help us out. The drive to Snowshoe is horrible and long. I would get sick and nervous having to go up the mountain 3 times a day (there is NO OTHER PLACE to go where the B&B is located). We were also informed that they like guests to arrive back by 10PM, which made me feel a bit weird since I'm supposed to be on vacation. I almost felt like I was staying with a relative who went to bed early. We rushed to get back to the B&B on time, and by then, we were ready for bed. Our rooms were located upstairs, with a bathroom at the top of the staircase that has quite a step-up into it. You should be careful when entering/exiting. The shower is a claw-foot tub, which I usually love, but you have to hold the shower head the entire time and there is no where to hook it so water still hits you. I ended up spraying water all over the bathroom because I couldn't get situated. The curtain also sucks in and clings to your body. It was unpleasant. Our bedroom was a decent size with a queen-sized bed. Sadly, the bed and frame seem to be really old, which caused the bed to make loud noises any time you moved. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep the entire weekend. Breakfast is served at 8AM-8:30AM, which made me unhappy due to not being a morning person. It would have been okay if the breakfast was good, but sadly, it was not. I had been told of a large, wonderful breakfast. We got a casserole dish of baked oatmeal and 5-6 sausage patties. The innkeepers sit and watch you while you eat, which seems odd to me. I felt rushed and like I had to keep constant conversation whenever we were in a common area with them. I felt so uncomfortable staying there while my group skiied that I ended up going on the mountain and sitting in Starbucks for 6 hours each day. They also had poor wifi that barely worked in the downstairs room, and it was obsolete upstairs. I'm sure that Larry and Paula mean well, but personally I found the experience to be quite miserable and could not wait to leave and go home.

My significant other and I decided to have a romantic night out to dinner while visiting Snowshoe…read morefor a weekend of skiing. Elk River Inn and Restaurant is 20 minutes (11 miles) away at the base of the mountain situated right on its namesake - the Elk River. What truly carries this rating is the food and atmosphere. It's very cottage-like feeling with lots of wood interior and cozy reminders all around you that you are in the mountains. I wouldn't consider the interior kitsch, but rather, decor appropriate for what it is. It was built in the 1980's and to some degree still reflects the time it was built through its furnishings. In a way it reminds me of my parent's house and I can appreciate this sort of decor. For dinner we had a meat and cheese board, rainbow trout and duck breast. Items, which, we were better happy with. The food was delicious and proportionally fulfilling. I had a glass of wine and he had a beer. Prices are similar to what we are familiar with while dining high end in DC, and we weren't that surprised to find that out here. If you are looking for something moderately priced then this might not be the place for you. Service was less than amazing. It was slow and a bit amiss. That is why this isn't a 5 star rating. It was disappointing. She was nice enough, but not someone I would want to have as a server again. We were next to a table who had a different server and he was on top of his game without a beat. This is totally worth a visit if you want to get away from the mountain for an evening. It was refreshing having food that didn't involve something fried, a burger, or sandwich.

The bathroom was a great size for the room with a shower tub and complimentary shampoo, conditioner, wash, and lotion. The towels and bedding for sleeper are provided. For this lodge, you have to pay for "Towel & Trash" service or Maid service. The lockers were right by our room, as well as the fitness center and we were on the end so we had the door access closer to the center of the village. The laundry room had one washer and 4 dryers, which doesn't seem like much, but I didn't see many people utilize it anyways besides us and one other person used the dryers. This lodge was great because our rentals were just downstairs outside of our building. Super convenient. The slopes are right outside! It's easy to access to load/unload your stuff when you arrive or leave. I recommend this lodge for sure! It's not in the center, but it's not long of a walk either. Checkin that The Inn at Snowshoe (at the bottom of the mountain) was easy. Angie was so great and helpful. I'm glad she was there when we got checked in and all of our tickets for lift and my kids snowboard lessons. She answered all of what I needed.

I was debating between 3 and 4 stars, for the reasons below, but we really did make this work and it was a cozy and convenient stay with beautiful views. Let's talk about the location first. Location was perfect, right in the center of the adorable Snowshoe village and literally next door to the slopes. You walk out the back door, outside the snowboard gear lockers, and you are on the first slope. I loved how close it was as you can scurry off to get lunch or to the bathroom within just a few moments. The view outside the room, the building, really the entire village, is stunning. Be sure to catch the sunrises and sunsets across the mountain tops. Now for the room and stay. The building is almost like a hotel/apartment complex building. There is no front desk. You have to go about a half mile down the mountain to get the keys and lodging information. The room is obviously older and nothing fancy. As far as the kitchen situation, the fridge should be bigger. It was a mini-fridge so be prepared! I think when you have a two bedroom room, you would need more than a mini-fridge due to the number of people staying. Luckily, my friend and her husband had a huge cooler and we just kept refilling it with ice. The kitchen had a dishwasher and two burner stove. The light over the sink was broken and the mini-fridge did not close all the way, which was a turn-off. All of this being said, I truly do believe we made it work great. They do have a bunch of utensils, pots, and pans. We were able to get creative and make some good dinners. The living room had a few games, a television, cozy blankets, chairs/couch, and lamps. There was a "kitchen" type table for dining/games. The living room was definitely cozy and the views were outstanding! All of the rooms got so much sunlight, which was lovely. There were two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The bedroom space was tight, but not too bad for two people staying in one. Dressers in both, closet in one, television in one. The beds came with amble bedding as it gets cold in the mountains, which was nice. The beds were also incredibly and surprisingly comfortable! I would recommend Expedition Station from our experience. Not bad from a price standpoint for three nights with the location and almost having everything you need. However, we would probably stay somewhere else next time for a different experience, as there are many areas/adorable mountain homes to stay during your trip in this area.

Living room with tv but couldn't watch anything, even with personal streaming. Our house had three bedrooms upstairs: one with a full sized bed, one with two twins, and one with a queen. Don't want to sound like a princess, but the pillows didn't work for me: way too firm/ hard and bulky, or too mushy... There were clean towels and the shower was very warm. I accidentally did not taken any interior photos ..... Beautiful setting; would definitely stay here again.

I wish I could give the houses more stars than last time, but sadly, not much has changed. The houses look a little more tired than before, and the state park still hasn't done anything to make them any more comfortable or inviting. If I was in charge of the houses, I would hang old-timey pictures of men logging, of trains, scenery from other state parks, and black and white photos of the town of Cass from 100 years ago. Give your customers a sense of time and place. Also, these houses still need a lot of love and maintenance. They need new paint, roofs, and other miscellaneous items repaired or replaced. Overall, this is still a very cool place, and I will probably be back. But it's as if I can feel the town slowly dying....without more money and maintenance from the state.

I'm glad that I read about the lack of WiFi and cellphone service in advance so I was prepared. I took it as a break to spend time with my friends and husband - a time to disconnect. They also host spiritual conferences there, we were told. I can imagine it being a good place for a church retreat - the rates for conferences were very reasonable - advertised in the $400 range for a full weekend of meals and activities. I can imagine this business growing as the location is extremely beautiful and it's a powerful thing to disconnect and reconnect with loved ones.
