Best stay in Russell!

This was a rustic feeling lodge. The staff were super friendly. The entire site was very clean and maintained. We had a very relaxing stay with one of the best continental breakfasts we've had from a hotel. Our family would highly recomend this as a must stay place in Russell!

This was a great stay. It's not fancy or new, but that is to be expected with the low price. The rooms were comfortable and clean, the staff was friendly, and the breakfast was great. Lugging our furniture up the stairs was a bit of a hassle, but it was a great overnight stay.
