It was a small facility and we had a fairly small room. Nothing to brag about just the basics. When you are this far from a major city, you have to take what you can get

Great place to stop in the mountains in the middle of no where...We stayed here to be close to the hot springs. Perfect location for that! Breakfast was good, big portions. Had a really nice waitress. Smelled like an old person cabin in the woods.. glad it was just one night.

Thin walls

I wasn’t expecting much, but was very disappointed when my room smelled like old cigarettes. The walls were very thin. Which was only a problem in the morning when the neighbor children started screaming with glee early in the morning. Problem, resolved after I started playing my music to show how thin the walls were. Family got the message. I hope your neighbors are equally considerate.

Great little property about 10 mins North of the town of Lowman, ID. Ideal if you're heading to Stanley or driving the scenic byway Route 21. Rooms are smaller and slightly older, but super clean and well kept. There's an attached restaurant and general store that you can grab a bite at. But keep in mind that they shut by 7:30pm. Overall super convenient and great experience!

Just the right amount of off the grid, 1.5 hours from cell coverage, but Wifi throughout the property, if needed. Many amazing hot springs close by and short walks from parking areas, and some a good hike to the reward. The Food in the lodge was hearty, well prepared and very tasty. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner were all good!

Awesome place

I just want to start off saying that the owners and staff are wonderful. We had a little car trouble on the way and the owner let us have a late super late check so we could get the problem sorted. The food was great and the staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable and even with car trouble we had a great time and a great stay. I high recommend staying here.
