I must say, I was a bit hesitant when I pulled up to this place, but it ended up being my favorite stay out of 4 hotels! So cute inside! Not far from West Yellowstone either! We found the Craters of the Moon National Monument and went there, which we never would have discovered had we stayed in Wyoming the entire trip. I would recommend this lodge to anyone wanting to be off the beaten path.

This was a great little motel. The rooms were decorated in bears and felt homey with colored sheets and towels. The bathroom was large and the shower was nice.

Worked well for our family, cute and affordable!

We stayed one night but it was perfect for our family of 7! Stayed in the family studio suite which had two twin size bunk beds with a small couch in that room, bigger bed with full size couch in room with microwave, full size refrigerator, a small table with 3 chairs, TV and then a bigger bed with TV in the room (bedroom) you first enter when entering the unit. Everything was clean and dark/blackout curtains were nice. Small eco friendly bottles of lotion, shampoo and bar of soap. We arrived late but not a problem, check in was easy on our own. Location is right off the road, behind our unit was grass area and some trains. Decor was adorable cabin/wilderness like dark green, wood and bears. Light breakfast with granola bars, oatmeal, grab and go type things. Camping chairs in room to use. Price was reasonable and this place was just what we were looking for on our stop before Yellowstone/Grand Teton.

The room, bed and Air conditioning was very comfortable. This was really a motel with a Lodge Title. If you go expecting a lodge type atmosphere you will be disappointed. It was close to what we wanted to see and we got a nice nights sleep. Our dog go to stay with us for an extra 30 dollars. overall it was an Average to good experience.
