Stayed in the lodge, which has a few rooms with a shared kitchen and living room. Coffee, water, ice and snacks were provided. Room was very clean and comfortable. The lodge and cabins are located on a gravel road a few minutes from the main part of town. The setting was peaceful and just a short drive to town or the air taxi services. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay! It is obvious that Staci takes great pride in hosting. The room was cute and comfortable. Staci nailed the lodge vibe! The sheets smelled nice and the towels were fluffy and smelled fresh too. The amenities were thoughtful. We enjoyed the cofee,hot chocolate, and popcorn. Unfortunately, we did not have time to play any of the games provided due to our short stay. The deck was amazing! We enjoyed having the huge deck and firepit to ourselves. I really did feel lost in the woods here.

Very nice tidy cabin. Comfortable bed. The cabin had several games to play which was nice because we had a lot of rain. The outdoor grilling area looked great but we didnt use it. It's a great location close to town but quiet. Check in was great, just pull up, call the number and meet at the cabin. Bathroom in the Munchin Moose is very small. Shower is small and no sink. You use the kitchen sink. Not a problem for us.
