When I booked the Loge Glacier (formerly known as The Izaak Walton Hotel- a much better name because it fits the hotel better) I was expecting rustic and that's what I got. Built in the 1930's, it still has that old time charm. The room was small but very comfortable and shower and sink worked well. I would have loved a TV, but I suppose it would have subtracted for the ambiance. The hotel is very isolated. The nearest store or restaurant is 30 miles away. The food in the cafe was good but had a very limited menu. The lunch and dinner menu were the exact same which would grow old fast if you stay for more than a few days. Being so isolated, there's no other choice unless you eat at the park. I did not care for the $27 per day "resort fee". During the four nights we stayed in September there was not a single special activity going on. They say it's because they can loan equipment, but don't say what this equipment is. A bicycle goes for $35 a day so that can't be part of the resort fee. I wish they could give out some kind of welcome information when you check in, so people know what gear is available, hiking in the area, or anything special going on. Maybe the fee wouldn't have bothered me so much. They are located in a very beautiful area in the mountains. One of my favorite hikes was located just behind the hotel. We had to discover it on our own, because it was another thing they didn't tell us.
