About this property

Empty Bottle Saloon - Rm. 209

“EMPTY BOTTLE SALOON” — Lodge Room 209

Step into Lydia Mountain's playful take on the Old West, where rustic charm, character, and comfort come together for a truly memorable stay. Each of our uniquely themed rooms offers a nostalgic escape, and the Empty Bottle Saloondelivers a fun, lighthearted frontier experience — no spurs required.
Lodge Room 209 (Second Floor — No Pets Allowed) features a comfortable Queen-size bed, a full bathroom with tub/shower combination, and a private balcony overlooking the stunning Lydia Mountain landscape. Your personal “saloon” includes a convenient kitchenette with microwave, mini refrigerator, and single-serve coffee maker — and yes, the bottles are empty, but the character is full.
Wake to breathtaking over-the-mountain sunrise views from your balcony, then unwind beside the cozy wood-burning fireplace in the lodge's beautiful mezzanine. When hunger strikes, head downstairs to Bearrr Appetit Restaurant for dining paired with spectacular mountain vistas.
Perfect for those with a Wild West spirit, the Empty Bottle Saloon has earned a special nickname among wedding parties as the “Groom's Saloon,” where gentlemen gather to share laughs, stories, and a few final moments before heading downstairs to say “I do.” But whether you're celebrating a wedding, a getaway with friends, or simply a love of western flair, this room promises a stay full of personality and fun.
Saddle up, step back in time, and enjoy Lydia Mountain's own frontier adventure in the unforgettable Empty Bottle Saloon — where the only thing missing is the dust from the trail.

Howdy!

We loved this room! It was so much fun, and we kept finding little treasures in the decor! The view was spectacular, and to be able to watch the fireworks from our balcony was the best! The staff went out of their way to make sure we were happy. All I can say is giddy up and go to Lydia Mountain!

Most Unique Room EVER

This room was a delight. There were treasures to discover everywhere. We loved it! I would like to see specific instructions for how to operate the TV/Remote. The collection of 45 records was very cool. It might be useful for future folks if there were a care instruciotn sheet for the records. All-in-All - We are now torn between rebooking this room or exploring the others!! It was awesome.
