The Peaks of Otter Lodge is one of our favorite weekend get-away places.
The good: Every room has a balcony or patio that overlooks Abbott Lake (I recommend reserving a second floor room, if possible). The restaurant is reasonably priced, especially for a lodge in a setting like this. Each room has a slatted, locking screen door at each end, so if the weather is nice, you can get a nice breeze going and still be secure. There are no distractions in the room (no TV, radio, phone, cell phone service, etc.), so you actually get a chance to reconnect with your loved ones. The setting is awesome! You will most likely see deer feeding on the lawn as you look out over the lake.
The bad: The beds are extremely firm! There isn't much difference between the floor and the bed. We always bring along thick bed toppers and still aren't completely comfortable.
