   I stayed on April 17th while in town to attend a wedding. We closed down the hotel bar and walked back across the property to our room in the Bear Creek section around 12:30 am. While walking back across the historic outdoor amphitheater, we saw a woman dressed in 1800s clothing looking at us. She was motioning for us to ‘come here’ and then suddenly disappeared. We couldn’t believe what we saw! .. and had a very hard time getting to sleep. We slept a few hours and then drove home around 5 am. Before leaving, we went and checked out at the front desk. My husband didn’t want me to say anything to the front desk about the encounter out of fear of retaliation. I decided to mention it and they confirmed we saw ‘the maiden of the amphitheater.’. They had similar reports from the bikers who often stay there on the weekends. I was told she often appears in 1800s fashion but sometimes will be missing either the top or bottom of her outfit. When she appeared to us, she was fully clothed thankfully.

   Great hotel but we got a haunted room. First walking in it was an amazing lobby, the branding iron was amazing. But when we got it our building, is when things changed. We one of us tried taking a shower it turned off for almost 10 seconds. A little after, our child called out “mom! Mom!” And with a reply of “yesss?” She knew it wasn’t her moms voice and yelled after again. At night, we turned off the television, when we woke up to a knock which could have been honestly anyone, the tv was on. In the morning I tried taking a shower and the water was cut again. So next time you go, don’t be surprised to incounter a ghost.

   ok so we do NOT usually believe the reviews about hotels being haunted.. but we stayed here another time and encountered some paranormal activity. (You can read our other review) So some of our family came to visit and they are younger and wanted to see the hotel we told them about. So we took them to just go in the lobby and auditorium. So we decided RIGHT WHEN we got out of the car to film in one of our back pockets to see if we saw anything. We split up (3 to the saloon and two to explore) so while the three were at the saloon the other two went to the auditorium. When there we didn’t see anything so we went back. There’s another room that we went to inside next to their restaurant “The Branding Iron” and super weird but the smell changed to a musky dead smell… We were there for a minute checking it out and then heard CHAINS..rattling from the back of the eerie room. Then one of the ballroom doors CREAKED open just the slightest bit. (Keep in mind we were still recording from the back pocket…) we were wondering if we should go to the bathroom but then we didn’t because we didn’t want to get locked in there 😭🤣 so we went back to the auditorium and we check to see if it was still recording and it was (keep in mind the phone was at 70%) So we go back in and everyone is back and we go to the room where we heard the chains before. Then, one of us noticed that there parts of the carpet CUT OUT with little burgundy/dark red spots on the carpet liner. We immediately thought “that’s definitely blood!” It made it really interesting knowing something happened there. So we all went to the auditorium again nothing there.. when we left the place we felt a cold spot walking out in 100 degree weather. When we got in the car we went and looked back at the video. It wasn’t there! Along with all of the pictures we took. Instead of the video it’s just a grey screen. So we looked back at the other video on a different device and all of the pictures were gone but the video was there. We looked over the video and we saw I KID YOU NOT! A GORILLA. LIKE. FACE. IN THE WINDOW?! and right below was only the head and face of a MAN WITH A HAT AND BEARD! and if that’s not bad there was a face of a rodeo clown on the other side! and if you saw other reviews the hotel is known to have a rodeo clown! Anyways yea if you want a fright go here but for us..NEVER again 🤗
