The location and hiking around this property can’t be beat … the lounge areas and common sitting areas are quaint and comfortable…. The and surrounding lakes and mountains are so pretty .. the staff were generally very lovely and the food was good … I just can’t get past the enormous amount of mouse poop on our second floor deck that had clearly not been cleaned up for several weeks. I get it ..we are in the mountains… however when I discreetly showed them the picture they gave me some comment about nature … to which I replied is it normal for that not to be clean up? only then did they acknowledge the issue and said that they would take care of it right away. The decks need to be part of their daily cleaning full stop

This is a beautiful lodge that sits near numerous hiking trails. Located on a lake, it offer magnificent views of the water and mountains. The staff is first class and very attentive. The common areas are gorgeous and inviting. Their are two restaurants and a fast food store on the property. Some of the rooms overlook the water. We were placed in a non view room of modest size. The bathroom was spacious but the room was a little tight considering that suitcases were generally open on the floor. Nevertheless, it was comfortable and clean.

Stopped in to view the place and have a drink and small meal. The lodge is rustic and beautiful and the views are unbeaten. The history of the lodge is interesting as well. We enjoyed sitting on the large patio to relax between hikes and our boat tour, enjoyed a drink from the small shop downstairs then had pizza after the boat ride. The lodge is absolutely stunning and the views, the whole experience alone is worth a stop.

Magnificent place with killer view. A perfect example of an old mountain lodge complete with huge log beamed ceilings and fireplace. Room was tiny as befits a hundred year old lodge. Winds and rain howl which is rather standard for this location. Loved everything about it.

My wife and I stayed here for three nights. In a lot of respects the hotel is very nice. It has a great views with lots to do, including ranger-led talks, hiking and boat tours. (Boat tours should be reserved before you arrive as they sell out.) The restaurants were good and they offered a good assortment of Montana craft beers. Service in the restaurants and the hotel was top notch. The common areas of the hotel were very nice. Lots of places to sit and enjoy the great views. On the downside, parking is a nuisance. You have to park on the other side of a hill which is very inconvenient. Make sure to drop your bags off at the hotel before parking and make sure you don’t leave anything that you need in the car. Our room was a huge disappointment. The walls were the thinnest I have ever experienced. You hear every word spoken by your neighbors. My wife couldn’t sleep one night because our one neighbor was snoring. You can hear people in the hallway from about 10 yards away. There are no televisions so you can’t drown out your neighbors by turning the tv up. They blame it on the hotel being old but I’ve been in a lot of old hotels that don’t have this problem. Beyond the noise issue, we also disliked the bed. It was too small and sunken in. The only saving feature of the room was the bathroom. It was fairly large and everything worked well. With hindsight I would have spent just one night here, arriving early and departing late to optimize the stay. Staying 3 nights was way too much for us. Note that the hotel is sold out far in advance. You should book about a year in advance if possible. We booked 9 months out and there were very few rooms left.
