The lodge staff members are all friendly, welcoming, efficient, and helpful, and the lodge is beautiful and very cozy with a real fire always going in the huge hearth. We had morning coffee and after dinner drinks there every day along with several other guests, but it was large enough to accommodate us all. We felt as comfortable as we are at home.

This is a great place! It is a ski lodge. It is well maintained and has a restaurant and a bar in the building. It has a big sitting area with a fireplace. The only draw back is there is no elevator. If you are staying here to go to Glacier National Park, it is about an hour drive to the west entrance and over 2 hour drive to the east entrance. The staff is great, the best I have ever seen. Free washer and dryer. The breakfast is ok. I would definitely stay here again, but not if I am going to Glacier National Park.

A wonderful older lodge with a great room in lobby area with fireplace and cozy corners to sit or play a game of backgammon or something else. A very tiny bar The Snug will serve drinks and sandwiches or salad wherever you’d like to sit in bar or lobby. Staff very friendly and helpful. Open windows in our room to have mountain breeze. Continental breakfast was ok - but not great. Coffee very good and hot. Oh - and Pendleton blankets on each bed! Lovely time.

Its a old lodge, very well maintained, clean and a good English breakfast. There is no lift. You have to carry all your luggages yourselves via steps which is a big drawback. Otherwise the lodge is excellent for stay.
