The property reminded me something out of the 1950s. It was too spread out. You were guaranteed a free breakfast. Well, the restaurants gonna be closed until December 15. I obviously didn’t get my free breakfast. The manager did not offer any other compensation. They were helpful with guidance to getting through Yellowstone National Park. They also offered me free bear spray when I ask where I could buy some.

We've stayed here before and loved it then and we loved it now. This time our room was in the corner and we were right across from the restaurant where you get free breakfast every morning. Our room was clean and spacious. We had two bathroom sinks (one outside of the bathroom and one inside of the bathroom), so that was really nice. The lodge is very close to the West Entrance of Yellowstone. Lots of dining and shopping options in West Yellowstone. Great hotel to stay at!
