We were a little leary when we drove up as the outside doesn't look great, however, I had seen the great reviews and knew that it should be ok. When we walked through the door, we were so happy! The rooms are HUGE and so incredible. View was amazing! If we ever go back that way, we will definitely stay again.

Almost Great! (Good enough for me)

Pros: Beautiful setting, nice bed, convenient location. Cons:The laundry, and vending machines were out of order, and all the “service” was remote—no employees/management were physically present at the property (which made requesting towels, etc. problematic). The parking lot is dirt/fine gravel, and a bit muddy (no big deal for me). The water pressure was not great. Overall: I would definitely stay here again.

Recently stayed for six nights…used as a base for a week long fishing trip. Great location for access to the Madison River and within 90 minutes of the several other major fly fishing destinations. Quiet, clean and safe spot.

Robbed by the McAllister!

There was no one there to help us! We called the telephone number of the "parent motel" in town. They said we could trade our room and come stay there if we'd prefer. We did! They told us they would call you and cancel the McAllister reservation. They recharged us for the room at the Sportsman's Lodge. She apparently never cancelled your room because we were charged for both rooms and only stayed in one!
