After heading almost straight up the entire hike with steep switchbacks and rope climbing sections, this view over Crescent Lake at the top is worth it!

9/10 Wonderful! (783 reviews)
Was provided a room with no view after paying for a premium ocean view suite. The room smelled strongly of urine. The heater did not work. The roof and walls were not sound proof at all. There was no WiFi or cell service available in the rooms. The overall quality of the facility was very low.
