Great place to stay
Very clean. Owner friendly and helpful. She went out of her way to get me a glass of ice water when I arrived hot and tired. We loved this gem of a hotel and will be back. The ride is beautiful leading to the hotel. The view is spectacular.

This os a wonderful place to stay in all respects! And the shared bathrooms are no problem at all: my husband and I each had one to ourselves, they lock so you have privacy alone, and they are modern, sparkling clean and huge! This inn is fantastic!

The Bush House is amazing! It's an OLD building, so it's a little quirky, but they've maintained it extremely well. It's very clean, and the people are all so nice. Our room's hardwood floors had some slivers popping up, but other than that, the place appears to be in pristine condition! Definitely will stay there again, if we have the occasion to be stopping in the area.

The physical setting -right up against the mountains - was spectacular. Quiet area (except for the train twice daily). Felt very safe and held in the beauty of the outdoors.

We stayed in the cottage for a night and were greeted with warm staff and beautiful, rustic accommodations. The restaurant is fantastic and there is natural beauty all around. Great place for a weekend trip or extended stay in the mountains.

Last minute we decided to stay in the beautiful town of index after a hike. Booked the inn, I’ve stayed at the cottages next door before. It’s a beautiful, historical building. Bathrooms were updated, friendly staff, easiest check in and out. Would definitely stay again.
