This property used to be so beautiful/unique, and I always wanted to stay there. But it's not in good shape, anymore. The owners need to sell to someone who wants to return the Swiss Chalet to its former self or bite the bullet and put some money back in to this property before they lose it completely.

This property is so run down, old, and hasn’t been kept up. It was clean and that is the only reason we continued our stay. The office wasn’t open during hours and when we called for towels they were RUDE! No service! This property needs to close or do major renovations.
