Winter Get Away
We wanted a middle of Christmas break chance to get away. I had always wanted to try the Blue Gate and so we stayed here and ate at the Blue Gate restaurant. The lobby was so cozy and inviting that we spent a couple of hours there in the evening, just sitting and reading! It was all exactly what we needed and just felt clean and comfortable!

Love Blue Gate at Christmas Season
Everything very convenient. One in our group has limited mobility and had no problems with elevator and breakfast being conveniently located. We didn't get to enjoy the firepit and pool but both were working well and looking very inviting

One of the best properties we've stayed in - can't say enough good things about it. However, if you need something to eat after 7pm, be sure to bring something with you or drive to another town.
