The bar area was very rowdy and loud unril 2 oclock in morning. My room was at the very end of hall and i could still hear them. They need a door to shut off rooms from the bar area.might have helped.

Bear Lodge

I love the mountains. Bear Lodge was disappointing...the room had a broken recliner abd the bed was very uncomfortable. Realizing the resort is just opening up for summertime but property is not being upkept.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room did not have a microwave, the doors in the lodge and to the room were sticky and difficult to open, the key to the room and the door was difficult to operate, the fan in the bathroom was as loud as a freight train, the restaurant tables were dirty, and the entire place needed a facelift. The staff, however, are lovely and accommodating.
