The three bear lodge was a very good experience for us. The bed was super comfortable, rooms are clean and the staff at the reception were amazing. They even serve complimentary cookies, ones you'd pay 3 dollar each at a bakery / coffee shop. My only downside was the pricing level, we paid 260 a night in the beginning of July and although it's high season and it's proximity to yellowstone park, this lodge isn't worth this amount. At a 200 dollars per night price range, I'd rate it 5 stars easy.

Really stale breakfast.. pancakes and potatoes were at least a couple of days old.. The baklava and muffins probably a week old. No way, that breakfast is worth $18 per head.

Clean and family friendly

The room was very clean and large. The shower had adequate pressure though the temperature was tough to balance, being either slightly too cold or very hot. The pool and hot tubs (yes, two hot tubs!) were clean and tolerable. The included buffet was nice but the fact that the buffet could be substituted for a discount on the restaurant breakfast was a delightful feature.

Stay for the breakfast and hot tubs!

Our room was nothing special but it was clean and had everything we needed for two nights. We traveled for two weeks and can say that Three Bear Lodge had the very best breakfast of all our hotels. The buffet is in the restaurant and had so many great options. My kids also enjoyed going in the hot tubs. There were two of them and they looked brand new.
