    Not a con if you’re the one doing it. But, people can lock the whole bathroom that contains the sink, shower, and toilet. So if you really need to use only one of those in the morning you sometimes have to wait for that person to finish bathrooming, showering, brushing their teeth, and changing.

    Clean lodgings. The walled tents are heavy duty. breakfast was really good.

    Booking advertised our room wrong so we didn’t have enough beds for our group. But luckily someone canceled their reservation and we were able to add an additional wall tent and the rest of the stay was great. Sharon was very helpful and quick to find a solution.

    Loved the cabins and tents. It was a great place with lots of options. Breakfast was good. Shower house was clean.

    needs to be more advertised as camping in the woods, with no amenties, then one would be prepared.

    The tipi (they can not control the weather) was very wet. My complaint, is that you could not "open" the flap so you could step into the tipi, so had to get on our hands and knees and crawl in and out of the tipi, in the wet and mud. The entry shows, bakery, dry goods. No wood to purchase for fire, no dry goods to purchase, had to go all the way back into town to eat lunch, dinner, No BBQ grills, just one huge fire pit. Quite the jaunt to get to running water, toilet.

    friendly people, lovely setting. Very good breakfast. Being in the food industry for years, I would make the suggestion, of giving EVERYONE a choice, So not taking hours to feed all, I would suggest 3 choices, biscuits and gravy, meat, eggs toast, pancakes and eggs, meat, scrambled skillet. Still gives everyone a choice, and help out the cook having to not cook such a large variety.

    I waited 25 minutes for breakfast the last morning I was there. I got there at 9:45 and just wasn’t helped. Other than that it was a very enjoyable stay!

    The location was absolutely fantastic! The animals were fun to interact with, the room was comfortable. The staff here was so friendly and a joy to be around.

    Like I said, there were some flies in the breakfast hall, but that was literally it.

    The breakfast was amazing each morning, it was clear whoever made the food had been at it a long time. The room was perfectly clean and apart from a few flies, which were to be expected that time of year, the breakfast hall was equally spotless. We had a bison right next to our place, and the trails were gorgeous. The ladies who ran the place were lovely and kind, they upgraded us free of charge and when we asked for a third day they let us keep the upgrade with no extra charge for the day. I'm apauled at the bad reviews I can't stress enough it was tremendous.

    The bathroom/shower were a distance.

    The staff was friendly and accommodating. The tepee was as expected from the pictures. We didn't have enough sticks to close the tepee properly but other than that the beds were comfortable. We were able to obtain a tent for the next night. The bed was comfortable and since it rained our area was nice and dry. If we had stayed in the tepee, we most likely would have gotten some rain inside.

    Though I liked the homestead engineering through the property, I could see how some might want a few more creature comforts. But as someone who spends two months of the year in a tent, it was fine for me.

    A unique alternative to a motel/hotel. I stayed in a teepee. It was a chilly damp evening, but it was cozy in the twin bed. Staff was great. Was nice to have a breakfast service included. Do keep in mind that this is a working ranch. That's either a plus or minus depending on what you are interested in. All in all I had a great time there. It's close enough to glacier national Park that you can do the loop through the park and take the long way back to the lodge.

    The price was a little steap from the last time we came and it's not justified when there is not a bathroom and shower in room and no source of heat.

    Breakfast is always a nice bonus . I love the breakfast area with the Western theme. The Buffalo are pretty cool
