Such a pleasant surprise to get here and find it better than the pics & reviews. The gym is in a different building than we are staying in, but just a short walk. The room is spacious, clean & comfy. The staff is friendly and very helpful

The room was large clean. The furniture was small and not really useable which is probably why they keep the fridge, coffee maker, cups, and ice bucket in the bathroom. The cups next to the toilet was particularly puzzling. Plenty of parking here, and location is easy to get to and from different places in town.

After our VBRO cancelled last minute and had issues getting a refund. We went to Bear Lodge. The staff were open and friendly and went above and beyond to welcome us last minute. Rates were reasonable. The rooms were clean and the grounds were very nice. I will recommend this hotel to anyone.

The person that picked us up from the airport at midnight was happy informative and went way beyond taking care of us. The room was large and pretty , best we've had so far. My only complaint would be no food, but actually that has been an ongoing problem. I love this place, I'd stay again.
