After a kayak trip on Murtle Lake, the bed was super comfortable and the water was hot. The beer was cold and the food good at the onsite restaurant. Very good one night stay.

Nestled in the mountains of Blue River. Nice property with walking trail to Eleanor Lake. The cabins are beautiful and staff are friendly and helpful. Going in the fall had a disengaging, the restaurant closed the week before and not all rooms have the outdoor hot tub. This is primarily catering to heli skiers so there are a number of heli pads on the property. It gets very dark at night here so the stars were bright abs beautiful. Wood burning fireplace was a bonus. Highly recommend this place.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
They fail to tell you that their “basic” room is not on the main property but actually in a crappy motel across the highway. They also do not tell you / advertise that in summer, the lodge facilities are effectively closed, no dining room or lounge, no hot tub or workout centre access. Totally misleading.

Liked: Staff & service
The room seemed clean, but there was an overwhelming cigarette scent. The room was small but had everything you needed. Maybe we got unlucky and got a room where there were a lot of smokers, but it just made the whole room feel a little dingy and unclean from the smell. The Saddle restaurant was really good, good sized portions and very tasty! Not sure I’d stay here again but I would stop into the restaurant for sure.
