This place was a gem! Nice staff, clean rooms, amazing homemade breakfast! My only suggestion would be to have a brighter light in the bathroom, but that’s all! Was nice to be able to walk to many places from there.

Best hotel

The hotel was very peaceful and you could see the elk when it was feeding time. The hotel had rocking chair out side for you to sit and relax in. I could not asked for a better time. We had stayed in other hotel and pay alot more but this one is one of the nicest one there is. You could walk to the store and see the river across the street.

Very nice place to stay!

We completely love this place. We checked in earlier than the timeline, but the manager, she kindly let us checked in. The place was cozy & warm. The manager was courteous, very friendly and go out of her way to assist us with questions. Breakfast was delicious! Definitely will recommend this lodge to others.

Gary, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not bad just disappointing

Disappointing, that's the word that best describes my experience. The room was tiny, stinky, dirty, and def not worth what we paid to stay there. There are signs and notes everywhere with rules like you're staying at a mean mother-in-law's house. The "award winning breakfast" is a taco with egg, mushroom, peppers, and onions. It comes with fruit and half a cinnamon roll. There is no alternative, and if you ask for something different, the lady cooking the food will tell you that their breakfast won an award. Well, I'm allergic to onions and she used the same hand to touch everything, so it doesn't matter if it's "award winning" if I can't eat it. And you can not take a plate back to the room for your spouse. You have to be at the window between 8am and 8:55am in person, or you get nothing. The ice machine is broken, and you can only ask them for ice between 2pm and 10pm. It is in a good lication, but everything around it closes at 5pm. The young guy who works at the front desk is very sweet. You can not actually walk up to the front desk or enter the lobby, you have to do all business through a window. I can't lie, I cried over the amount of money we paid to stay here because I was so disppointed. It's not a terrible place, just not at all what I expected.
