Lone Eagle Lodge

Lone Eagle Lodge

8/10 Good
"Pretty good - Some hits, some misses. Although this is an older motel, the room have been remodeled with very modern amenities and apparently by skilled craftsmen not the hacks you usually see at places like this. (There were still some sketchy things in the common areas though) Everything was clean and well cared for. Bed and pillows were comfortable and in good condition. Having said all that, there were some basics lacking. WIFI was completely useless and only added frustration. Cell service is OK in the area so I was able to tether my laptop to my phone. One of the bedside lamps was unplugged and the other one was missing a light bulb. Lighting was confusing, operated by remote controls that were tucked away inside a drawer and not readily available while you are trying to come in to a dark room for the first time. Other things felt hidden as well: There were no cups in the bathroom but eventually stumbled accross some in a drawer by the coffee maker. (which was pure luck because I don't drink coffee) Tissue was tucked away in a cabinet under the sink. Trash can was teeny tiny and not really enough for a 3 night stay. There doesn't appear to be anyone on site to assist, although they were very resonsive on the phone. I would probably stay there again, but I'm a little disappointed because it could have been better with a few changes."

"Very convenient on the main street in Grand Lake, and we had a late arrival, which was handled perfectly and efficiently. Nice room, we've stayed in that same room before (we've stayed at this property six or seven times in recent years), the motel was full but there was still a parking spot for us in the lot. All good, the lady in the lobby at our late arrival gave all the instructions needed."

"Pros: This cabin is perfect for a few nights, has a full kitchen, and enough space to spread out. Walkable to downtown and the lake. Very quiet and cozy. Cons: I didnt receive any checkin instructions and there’s no clear indication how to check in at the “office,” which was locked. It took 30min to get someone on the phone once I’d already arrived. I also could not figure out the fireplace, and didn’t see instructions. Many of the notes in the binder are outdated."
