The resort was built as a hospital in 1913. The period furnishings throughout the resort are truly first-rate. The resort maintains a charm not found in commercial hotels. Our room was truly excellent. We stayed in a deluxe suite in the main portion of the inn. They do have outer buildings and timeshare condos on the fairway of the golf course. Our room was no. 223 and is the one shown on their website (www.bethelinn.com) under deluxe suite. The room had a couch, king-size bed, and gas fireplace that was controlled by thermostat. The bed and pillows were some of the most comfortable I have ever experienced at a hotel (second only to the Westin's heavenly beds). The gas fireplace was set to a thermostat and really gave out heat. This was really excellent, because you didn't have to worry about shutting it off when you went to bed and could watch the fire as you drifted off to sleep. It was also automatically on when we awoke in the morning, which was very romantic.
The pool/health club was also very nice. Heated to 92°F, it was warm enough to be in the snow, but not so hot that you couldn't swim. They also had very good coed saunas.
They are PET FRIENDLY! For $20 each, you can bring along your dog. With 40km of trails, you are sure to keep you and your pooch happy.
