One night stay
Rustic setting. Clean. Relatively small room.
Very comfortable bed and plenty of hot water!!!
Restful night. Only issue was television connections were bad if that is important to you.
The room was clean and the communication with the host, as well as the check-in and check-out process were exceptional. As a minor critic I would point out the towels, which seemed old and were loosing their shape.But overall, I can definitely recommend Bucking Moose and would stay there again.
The room itself was fine. There was an issue with the internet and the mechanical room is located in our room. Someone from the internet service tried to enter our room twice without knocking or letting us know why they were even there. Management called and let us know what was going on AFTER a stranger just walked into our room. We had to get out of there quick. When we got back there was some internet thing plugged into the wall right next to the bed. It glowed bright blue and blinked on and off ALL night. I unplugged it otherwise we would've never gotten any sleep. They probably just use that room for storage if guests have to be inconvenienced to that extent.
