Marble Canyon Lodge

8/10 Good
"Had to stay over at Marble canyon for a night as the weather forced us indoors. Room was very nice, AC worked well, bed was comfortable, shower clean and spacious. My only issue was the unfriendly middle aged woman who I saw frequently at the front desk. She is definitely an Unwelcoming presence. I was super polite and deferential, but she never even cracked a smile. I almost reduced my tip because of her, but the housekeeper was sweet and I’m sure needs the money, so I increased the tip. The attached Jack Rabbit lounge was pricey and although the people there were friendly and working hard, I thought the prices were high, although you are in the middle of nowhere. Still almost $20 for stingy shot of mid range bourbon is insulting. If there is a next time, I will bring my own."
