We stayed in one of the two-unit bunk houses. The room was small but we enjoyed it. Despite the howling winds, we were cozy. Our main goal was to hike to the glacier. We were provided with a great breakfast for hiking. It offered an array of food options that left us ready for a morning long trek. The staff was excellent. This is a no frills option that was more than adequate for what we sought. We literally left the parking lot and got on the trail for a fantastic three to four hour hike. If your goal is to enjoy a great morning on the trail, this your place. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3f56ede4-d3a7-4683-83b3-d225282c6f17-1758672691674.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Brad Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy 15 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved staying here, everything was perfect.
