Great location and clean room. The only issue was the walls were paper thin. We could hear everything our neighbors said and were kept up all night our first night.

Staff was super nice. But I had a problem with my outlet in the bathroom not working, there was a hole in the wall leading to outside for a pipe going through the room which let in yellow jackets to our room.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room is small and smell. Not as the pictures posted. The posted pictures look clean and nice. But in the reality it’s not. The environment around the room is good and relax, but very dirty for the table and chair outside. Maybe there is a bear at night time, that’s why the lady in the office told us not to put food in the car, bear will break the car windows. I saw food prints in my car in the next morning. Don’t know is it bear’s food print or not. It looks big like a man food print. Price is high. Not really like it. Will not stay the second time.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
It was extremely overpriced. The kitchen cabinets had most of the hardware missing off of them. There was a hole in the wall in the kitchen where you could see outside the large sliding window the lock was missing so anyone could come in at any time. It was so small that you barely had room to walk past the bed to get into the bathroom. There was no lights that worked the breaker tripped so we woke up to no coffee machine in the refrigerator had went off. It had a nice pool, but there was no water in it. The property outside was very pretty had large trees in a nice sitting area in the staff was nice but again this is $100 a night hotel that I was charged 250 a night for.

The room was nice. Basic amenities. Conveniently located. We wished the window has curtains. People can see us from outside if we have the lights on. Noise level was high. We can hear next door’s tv and people voices.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Absolutely horrible experience. We stayed here with our kids, and the room had rats running around all night. It kept everyone up and raised serious concerns about our health and safety. To make matters worse, there was no management on site, and we were unable to speak with a manager over the phone despite multiple attempts. The staff on-site seemed unprepared and offered no real help. When we finally reached someone later, they refused to refund us or take responsibility. There is no excuse for rodents in a guest room, especially when children are involved. Not only was it disgusting and stressful, but the lack of basic customer care made everything worse. If you value your health, sleep, and peace of mind, avoid this place at all costs. This was by far the most unprofessional and unsanitary lodging experience we’ve ever had.

The staff was wonderful. Love the family cabin. Someone trying to get in at night… I’m assuming was a bear… was a little alarming . Other than that I had a relaxing , quiet, peaceful stay at Emerald Bay Lodge!!! Will definitely stay again. Thank you for making my vacation great!
