very clean room
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Nice facility, nice location. Unfortunately, the on site restaurant closed for the season the day before, and there are EXTREMELY LIMITED options in town. Had we known, a kitchenette would have been a better room option. (our room did not even have a microwave - just a coffee maker). Rooms could be better equipped, given the non-options in town.

Room was very clean, staff was very pleasant although didn’t explain the set up completely so we wound up in part of the building we shouldn’t have been in due to staff not locking it. Overall however it was great and would recommend to anyone

What a sweet find! Love this special place. My friend and I shared a cabin with a common area but separate ensuite rooms. Clean, comfortable, and with nice walking trails. Highly recommend!

A really enjoyable stay. Being there in May is a totally different experience than in the winter but we loved the fresh green surroundings. Staff at reception were the only ones we saw and they were terrific. Love little Ronnie the dachshund! Hope he becomes their hotel mascot. Also loved the heated floor in the bathroom - even in the summer.

Bed was comfy. We arrived late and office was helpful to leave us directions in case we arrived when they were closed. Room was clean. Saw a couple of the pest repellent plugs in the wall which always makes me nervous why they are there to begin with but luckily we didn’t see any creatures. Nice big fridge and loved the set up of the fireplace all ready to go for us. Thanks for the stay.

After a kayak trip on Murtle Lake, the bed was super comfortable and the water was hot. The beer was cold and the food good at the onsite restaurant. Very good one night stay.

Beautiful place to stay! Very quiet and peaceful since it’s off-season. Our cabin was beautiful and spacious, it smelled fresh and was very clean. Our dog loved it too! Our sunset walk to the lake was absolutely lovely. The staff were very nice as well. :)

Great location and beautiful cabin. Had earplugs on bedside table initially thought they were chocolates!! In the middle of the night realised what they were for The Train Horn, if you’re a light sleeper you should wear them and receptionist should warn you of the need. Not affecting my overall experience of this great property and will be back for skiing.

All was good but restaurant menu was expensive to.need to have easy everyday things like burgers..fries. Everything was nothing I ate. But girl was very nice.

6/10 Good

Rooms are comfortable. Didnt know they come with a kitchen which is a plus. Unfortunately lots of mosquitoes inside the room. Surroundings not well kept. Huge difference between the cabin side with the rooms side. Amenities not open during summer.

Nestled in the mountains of Blue River. Nice property with walking trail to Eleanor Lake. The cabins are beautiful and staff are friendly and helpful. Going in the fall had a disengaging, the restaurant closed the week before and not all rooms have the outdoor hot tub. This is primarily catering to heli skiers so there are a number of heli pads on the property. It gets very dark at night here so the stars were bright abs beautiful. Wood burning fireplace was a bonus. Highly recommend this place.

Everything was perfect They had a nice view of the lake The only problem was they didn't have a hair dryer
Verified review

4/10 Fair

The room seemed clean, but there was an overwhelming cigarette scent. The room was small but had everything you needed. Maybe we got unlucky and got a room where there were a lot of smokers, but it just made the whole room feel a little dingy and unclean from the smell. The Saddle restaurant was really good, good sized portions and very tasty! Not sure I’d stay here again but I would stop into the restaurant for sure.
