Booked this room for after a friend’s wedding reception. I love the code for late check in - it was also easy to find, bed was comfortable and the bathroom lighting was on point. Also loved the size of the fridge and smart TV. The room was more quiet than I had expected since rooms on both sides of us were occupied. Nice little gem!
It was the perfect spot for us to rest for the night. It is very well maintained, providing a clean, comfortable, cute and quiet space. It has an adorable downtown area and the location is perfect to get you to all the sites in the area. The check in and check out process was so easy. 10/10 Id recommend others to stay here!
We stayed here this past week and were pleased with how clean the room was. Had everything we needed and the communication with the host with all questions/issues were answered promptly. We chatted with the housekeeper the morning we checked out and she mentioned that next summer there will be an area in the back for yard games, which is a great idea.
This is a great find! Clean, well maintained, they have a coffee bar set up for you as well as a QR code that has local recommendations for restaurants! It’s a very cute place and managed well. It was easy to get into our room and it was quiet all night long! Thanks for the awesome stay!
Loved my stay at The Lumberjill Lodge! The place was clean, cozy, and super easy to check into with the self check-in. I loved that I could bring my dog — it made the trip even better! Great location and very relaxing. I’d definitely stay here again.
Came here with a friend for a quick wedding trip - didn’t get in until almost 11pm and the code to our door wasn’t working…. My friend messaged the host and they replied within only a few minutes! Very impressed with the quick response for how late it was. The room smelled AMAZING! Most hotels/motels I stay in, the rooms are always so stale, but not this one! It’s very cute for the small size room we had, and very cozy and comfy. Pillows were great, sheets and blankets felt luxurious. Everything was great - we loved it! I’d book again if I’m in the area in the future, for sure! Oh and easy access to your vehicle right outside the room is always a plus too!!
We were just traveling thru and found this new remodeled lodge with great clean rooms. Easy walk or drive to downtown which has very nice shops/bars/food/bookstore and a brewery. Lodge was easy to find, easy to get into room with a comfortable bed & clean bathroom. Just a great place to stay. Would stay here again when coming thru. Thanks for a great stay.
Perfect dog friendly place to stay near town with all kinds of winter activities. We enjoyed skiing Balsam Branch ski trails (10min away), Indianhead Supper Club, and other local establishments. Room has everything you need and is nicely remodeled!
