We enjoyed our stay at Fishing Bear Lodge. The lodge has a unique theme and cozy atmosphere. It was very convenient for visiting West Yellowstone—only about a 50-minute drive. The room was clean, and the beds were comfortable. Overall our trip was awesome from here

Room was advertized as a mini sweet, but was just 2 beds & a bathroom. It would have been nice if there was a table to sit and play cards at. Beds were a bit soft, but everything else was good.

This is not a "lodge" but a fancy motel. It is right off Hwy 20, across from the Family Dollar so easy to locate. Very cute interior for both the beds and bath. Lots of towels, comfy bed, and chairs for outside! Be sure to book directly through the ofgicr rather thsn online for the cheaper rate. I paid about $40 more by booking online. When the hotel property is a mom and pop business, always better to deal with them directly. Big chains, probably better online booking.

Tiny little town, comfy accommodation, nice and clean. Family Dollar right across. We stayed 4 nights to do 2 days in Yellowstone and 2 days in grand teton (both park still a bit far at 1.5 hr away), but accommodation great!

Nicely decorated rooms. The front desk staff was friendly and alloed us to stay in same room for dates booked on-line and directly. This prevented us from having to move rooms in tje middle of the stay. I would recommend replacing the TV table with a dresser. I prefer to unpack but living out of a suitcase was fine.
