Stayed in Standard Room Valentines Weekend. Clean room, friendly staff and comfortable bed. They do charge an extra $5 per night for parking. Biggest complaint with the room was a very small bathroom. The toilet was (no joke) 2 inches from the tub which made it very awkward. Probably going to stay elsewhere next time

Loved our stay at Brookside Lodge. Easily accessible to downtown, and the stream outside our balcony was the best feature. Provides nice white noise. My mom saw a bear in the distance and it was the highlight of her stay.

Tub leaked, carpet needs a deep cleaning, spiders and spiderwebs were in several corners. Breakfast was decent, staff was nice. Upon checking in, I was billed a parking fee that was not mentioned anywhere I saw. We’d stay there again but prefer somewhere nicer with our kids in tow.
