Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesThe historic bed frame on the double bed is great for the decor. However, it does not support the mattress very well. Perhaps you could build a platform under it for more support. Keep the charm, but also provide for more comfortable sleeping. Also, your big sign out front is hard to read, it could use repainting.
The setting, with the river running by so close, is so picturesque. We took many photos. Our dinner at the restaurant was very good. The historic decor provided a lot of charm, so perfect with the setting.

United StatesRoom 10 could use better lighting. The old cabin 2 and 3 were really not equipped for modern usage. Missing working furniture, lamp, and such. Doors did not open or close fully. Cabin 5 was new and still a work in progress. Needs a key to lock personal belongings. Considering new owners hoping for more upgrades to the lodging!
The rustic charm. The new cabin. The owners. Dining hall and food was great. Accommodations

United StatesNothing. I guess maybe we couldn't find a hair dryer. No big deal. They did say that rumors from way back when was that our room might be haunted.....nope. still got a good night's sleep.
Everything. These folks were really nice. This place is rustic and so much character. There is the lodge, a separate restaurant, and separate bar. This place is a diamond in the rough. Great place to stay...and chat with the owners if you like.

United StatesLiked it all but people need to know it has no TV and it's more of a quiet retreat environment that some may want more entertainment. The bar could give that but overall it was a nice get away.
Good selection of breakfast items. Quaint environment. Bar for food and drinks was inviting. History of the lodge made it very interesting. Has a Yellowstone type rooms. No TV. Quiet environment on rooms. Family owned and has a homey feel.

United StatesThe only amenity I missed was a blow dryer.
We stayed in the fishing cabin right next to the river, the scenery was breathtaking. We had several interactions with family who owns and runs the lodge, they were all very friendly and super accommodating. Wayne, Michelle and the family are great hosts. Wayne even gave us good tips for fishing in the area and Michelle came to tell us that there was a bear on the hill across the river from our cabin. It was so cool. We also enjoyed a meal at the historic restaurant on site, The Carriage House. We highly recommend this lodge and hope to return in the future.

United StatesWe rented one hotel room and one cabin and felt like we could experience rustic Alaska. The hotel staff is friendly and welcoming, and the rooms are warm and cozy. Be prepared for a narrow hallway in the hotel; the floors slope slightly from the shifting permafrost. There are nine rooms in the hotel with two shared bathrooms. We had a three-bedroom cabin. From the outside, it looks small, but the inside is surprisingly accommodating. Electic heaters in the back bedrooms support the Toyo stove in the living room, making the cabin toasty warm even on chilly fall days.

EstoniaIt's very basic rustic lodge, beds really soft that you drown into it. Thin walls, very uneven floors as the lodge is 100 years old.
