| The hotel was very comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. The mountain views from the room were breath-taking. Although we did hear the train, it was not obnoxious and it would be difficult to find a hotel where you could not hear the train. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They provided a great deal of knowledge of the area. If we ever get back to the area we would definately consider staying at the lodge again.

| There is nothing plus about the Bear Country lodge, but the rooms are clean and the beds comfortable. The only thing that I would ask for, based on the price, is that they put a coffee maker in the room. Also was slightly dispointed that they didn't have the resteraunt open for breakfast during the winter at least on weekends.
