"Came here about 7pm as a traveling elk. Door says open till 8 and online says 9.Picked up the phone outside to get let in, lady says sorry we're closed. Hangs up then turns all the outside lights off on us right then and there. Pretty rude"

"Thank for serving our country, you’re not allowed to swing by for a beer, members only… But “We do appreciate you serving, you just have to be 70 years old and love bingo” I guess. Classy joint."

— Kyle Larkin

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Great lodge, great people! Hard to find a decent sirloin but crave a good one, this was a great one, perfect tender flavorful. Halibut was over the top, spinach sautéed just right, really glad we stopped. Felt like we were at home. Thanks for a great stay!"
