Good accommodations off the beaten path. We enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were sufficient and enabled us to explore around the David Thompson area. Restaurant was basic and you pay a premium for the isolation. A frozen hamburger meal seemed pricey for what it was. So we ended up getting food elsewhere. Overall - good experience. Would return if I am specifically visiting that area.

Very basic hotel in a nice area. Could use a microwave. Pretty clean room but different color on the walls would make it more cozy. Would reccomend for a night stay.

I understand the need for cancellation policies (I am a small business owner as well). If the property holds your room for you and misses other opportunities to sell that room and you don't show up, they should be paid. However, I booked a room on Expedia at 11 pm for a stay 3 days hence. Before the office opened in the morning, my travel partner had mechanical problems with their motorcycle and we couldn't make it. When I returned to the site, there were the same number of rooms available on Expedia as the night prior (this was only 11 hrs. after the booking), so they hadn't missed an opportunity to rent a room. When I called they refused to provide a credit and charged my credit card the nearly $400. To be fair they did provide a credit for a future stay (until the end of the year next year, but its highly unlikely I will be able to make it). While this is narrowly within the policy, it is terrible customer service, so don't expect much beside the room from the property. I am really disappointed, so be careful.

I recommend sleeping in your car over staying at this property! Poor accommodations and the service and staff is terrible!! I could go on but what is the point. Find another property to stay at and save yourself money and a huge disappointment!! I would give it a negative rating if I could. -3 would be fair!!!

Rooms have been updated, but still an old motel. Beds are good, but no AC and limited in room seating. Wifi is a real challenge. Very limited cell coverage here. Great trails to fantastic views of the lake make up for it. Restaurant is fine, with good service there. A bit too much $$$ for what is on offer, but cheaper than Banff and much quieter.

Room was clean just outdated. No A/C, no fan. Didn't feel comfortable leaving the window open, more like a 2 floor motel vs. a lodge, with very little privacy. We just stayed one night even though we booked 2 nights non-refundable.
