  : It was very quiet and peaceful. It was right by the lake and very relaxing after a long day touring Yellowstone.
  : The room I had was pretty small. The desk and chair were right next to the bed and hard to use. Parking in front of the room was under trees and on gravel. It was ok but made rolling the suitcases a bit difficult until got to the concrete.

  : Due to an accident on the road (not us), we arrived very late to the property (1-2AM ?). We didn't have cell reception to actually notify them, so we just went for it, nonetheless. They left me an envelope with instructions & keys for our room. That was very nice of the staff!
  : Well, it's surely a story: The place itself was probably fabulous in the early days, and the location is nice, near a lake, for whoever's into fishing, but lately, the amenities seem neglected... And there's no breakfast. Regarding the room: We got there late, tired, and we were a bit cold. The room itself wasn't that cold, but we did set the heat up a little bit. The fireplace lit up (gas powered), it was very nice and set a pleasant mood. Fast forward 10 minutes: The fireplace electric fan kicked in, to recirculate the air. Good in theory, horrible in practice. The fan was located at the bottom of the fireplace, and that was probably not cleaned since 1972. It was extremely dusty, and it set off my allergies. Red eyes, barely able to breathe with the bedsheet in front of my nose, and popped 3 anti allergy pills pretty much instantly. Took me 1.5h for my allergies to chill. When this started happening, I set the temperature to low, so it would stop the fireplace. It didn't work initially, as it was still recirculating the dust for like 10 additional minutes... Fast forward: We fall asleep, after watching FRIENDS on one of the 6 available channels on the CRT TV. I wake up at 3AM, cold af, not understanding why is something buzzing, and why is it so cold... I search in the room where & why is cold coming in and why is something buzzing quite loudly... I found a vent bringing in arctic air, and then it hit me: in USA there are HVAC systems. Heating, Ventilation and AC. I realized my mistake of setting the temperature slider TOO low, which besides stopping the fireplace, also kicked in the AC. Best of all: out of like...10 hotels that trip, this was the most expensive one (almost double), but the crappiest personal experience...

  : Location and price was good. 30 min away from the west entrance of Yellowstone. A small groceries shop is available on site which convenient.We could do our laundary We did not have any problem with hot water.
  : Very small bed. A small room was filled with unnecessary furniture (commode, huge table) which just takes to much space. Instead a proper bed should have been prioritized
