The common areas are nice enough, although the restaurant is a little countrified. The

If you're one of those folks who's freaked out by taxidermy, you might want to mo-
sey on past. If you're not, this is one of the more interesting hotel lobbies you'll see, lined
with trophy mounts of elk, moose and longhorns, plus a large, stuffed grizzly bear.
Oh, you wanted to know about the rooms as well? They're on the bland side, but who
needs 'em: the resort also has court facilities for tennis, basketball and volleyball, a walk-
ing track and a playground.
