After our VBRO cancelled last minute and had issues getting a refund. We went to Bear Lodge. The staff were open and friendly and went above and beyond to welcome us last minute. Rates were reasonable. The rooms were clean and the grounds were very nice. I will recommend this hotel to anyone.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Clean, okay room. All of the receptionists were very nice. Only reason it is not 5 stars is because you would expect something much better for the price. Basically same experience as your average $100 hotel anywhere else in the US. Breakfast was extra $20 or 30 per person, and was really good.

Breakfast at the on-site restaurant is very good, but expensive, starting at $24 and up. The second morning I ate at their little café where I had a good breakfast for $11.
