The name says it all. Cant wait to return!

The name sets the stage. Somehow this place feels like a little community of adventuresome souls - all different ages, including the dogs I was able to meet. There was even a live band. And though my room was on the 2nd story above where the band was playing, i couldnt hear the music when I closed the door. There's also a pub right there with stuff to munch and all kinds of things to drink. It really is like a campsite with a bunch of new old friends. So surprised!! As for the room, the best bed Ive ever slept in and I travel ALOT so Ive slept in all kinds of beds. The room is spartan-remember, this is base camp. And it is meant to be rustic. But it has all the necessities and space for gear or bikes...maybe even kayaks. I will be back for pleasure and I will be bringing my pack. I stopped going on vacations because my dogs weren't welcome. They are here. Truly. Around the camp fire, picnic areas, and so on. Now I cant wait for the snow!!!

Live band with great music we all know.

Not wildlife-friendly

I wouldn't stay here unless you want to support a business that allows bears to repeatedly get into trash at night, which leads to bears becoming habituated and having to be euthanized. As we were unloading our luggage around 10pm, a bear knocked over a trash can and started eating trash in the covered parking area about 15 ft from us. We called the front desk and they said "this happens every night." Every business has a responsibility to keep wildlife safe by using bear-resistant trash cans or stowing away the cans at dusk. This is an easy problem to solve. There should also be a lot more signage around the parking area and in rooms/walkways to educate visitors about not leaving food in cars, etc. Please do the right thing to keep wildlife wild.

We liked the campy feel of the hotel. The brewery attached with live music and pub food was the main attraction. The parking was very limited and there was no daily room servicing, we had to ask for towels, toilet paper etc... I believe it was because we were there in the off season. The staff that we did interact with were great. The cafe that was open in the morning was nice. Over it was a good stay but could use a good cleaning and a fresh coat of paint.

You’ve done a great job on refurbishing an old motel. We loved the touches of the firepits and on site coffee shop. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom remod really nice. Outlets near the bedside tables are needed and please provide do not disturb placards for the doors. Your parking lot needs resurfacing.
