Accommodations

A delightful stay at A Bear and Bison

My spouse and I recently enjoyed a delightful stay at A Bear and Bison Lodge, and we can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with the warm hospitality and overall ambiance. The lodge itself is beautiful, possessing an old-world charm that’s both inviting and relaxing. The amenities were excellent, and we especially enjoyed the stunning views of the Three Sisters mountain peaks.

A true highlight of our stay was the exceptional vegan breakfast (we requested Vegan breakfast). The chef’s skill in preparing a diverse and delicious array of vegan dishes was truly remarkable. Every morning, we looked forward to starting our day with such a satisfying and flavorful meal.

The entire staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit, always ready to assist with a smile. We want to give a special shout-out to Brooke at the front desk. Her exceptional hospitality skills and warm demeanor truly made our stay memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and made us feel welcome from check-in to check-out, which were both seamless and efficient.

If you’re looking for a charming and welcoming lodge with exceptional service, stunning views, and delicious breakfast options, look no further than A Bear and Bison Lodge. We can’t wait to return!
