Loved the atmosphere. Beautiful scenery. Being that it has the only restaurant close by, the menu was pretty limited. Food was ok, but they need more variety. Over all, We really enjoyed our stay

Amazing Views...worth the trip
Posted 29 Aug 2015
Pros: Views
Cons: Free breakfast
Location: Absolutely nothing to do nearby unless you rent or have a boat/houseboat
I got horrifically lost finding the hotel because GPS' don't seem to work or at least they do but want to send you down unpaved roads. When I got to the ferry I was told it stopped at 2 pm but from what I understand it is totally unreliable so recommend arriving by road.
As you are in a park there is a fee to enter at the Ranger Station.
The views, the sunset and their restaurant were all wonderful

It serves its purpose
Posted 15 Oct 2014
Pros: Very near the boat launch area etc. Power outlets in the parking lots for recharging trolling motor batteries.
Cons: The food in the restaurant is not that great, but very expensive.
Location: The only alternative is staying at the motel in Ticaboo, which is 12 miles from the marina. That's a good option also but not as convenient.
We've stayed in Defiance House several times. It's not a luxury hotel, but as long as you don't expect it to be, it suits just fine as a place to stay at the lake. No real complaints.

Expedia did not notify the hotel of my reservation. We arrived at midnight and our room (the last one) was promised to another traveler. Fortunately, we arrived first and I had a copy of my confirmation. Hotel was fine for a quick stop over before boarding our houseboat the next morning.

Close to the water
Posted 8 Jul 2014
Pros: The great service and awesome staff.
Cons: I felt the cost to be a little high for the size of the rooms.
Location: Not much around except the water. We did go to the Defiance house Indian ruin it was worth the hike. They have a couple gift shops and a little store
I thought this hotel was very close to the water which made it easy to launch our boat. The hotel was clean and staff was friendly and very helpful. The room was not as big as I expected. I had no problem getting anything we needed such as extra towels coffee. I had a broken shower hook and it was taken care of within minutes I had no can opener and went to the front desk to see if they had one and they took my can to the kitchen in the restaurant and opened it for me.

Defiance House Lodge was just what we needed. A place to sleep and rest between all our outdoors activities. I would def come back again
