My husband and I enjoyed this place. Very minimal needs place- we are there for the park. Perfect place with a bed, shower, microwave, and fridge. It did get hot at times but otherwise, a wonderful stay. Walkable town and grocery store around the corner. Would stay again.

Bucking moose was pretty central. Location was great. Our room was below a two story loft ( room 1). I don’t recommend that room. We could hear all footsteps from the room above us. Every move they made, we heard. Our room was also very close to the street. We got a lot of street noice. Outside of that. The room was calm and charming. Staff was helpful. Be aware, the room does not get cleaned while you are there. Fresh towels upon request.
