Murder Motel

this place is awful. I felt totally "Cat-Fished". Nothing like the pictures, pool was a mud hole and behind a locked fence, no deadbolt on the door to feel safe, no A/C but you also can't open the windows because the screens have holes, ceiling fan in the room but makes a noise when it runs, no coffee pot, no where to put your clothes, floors were dirty which we discovered when we wiped up water from the cooler we brought with a washcloth (no hand towels either). No office staff to speak to hence the virtual check in. Have no idea what it is doing on this website.

I love this Lodge!!!

I absolutely love staying here at the Snow Bear Lodge, it’s always very clean. The morning cleaning crew is very nice and helpful. This lodge is literally across the street from where we dock our boat, and close to the community park. I just wish their pool was filled so we didn’t have to make friends next door, to swim after hours from the lake

Our stay was very disappointing. We were told the pool was going to be available, and it wasn't, the place looked abandon, the front desk was closed, so their was no one there to speak to about our check in. This place was suppose to be a hotel & cabin, and the cabins & rooms looked run down.
