What guests think

At Mountain Lake Lodge, travelers repeatedly praise the scenic lakeside setting, friendly staff, and spacious rooms with balconies or views, while noting that some areas feel dated and standards can vary from stay to stay.

The heated infinity pool and 24/7 hot tubs with lake views are a highlight, along with lawn games, fire pits, and on-site laundry, though some guests encountered broken jets or periodic pool closures. Riley’s Pub receives many compliments, but several reviews cite closures or uneven food, while the complimentary breakfast is light. Expect a relaxing, view-first stay with warm service, plus some aging touches.

We appreciated being so close to Flathead Lake. Our room had an incredible view of the pool, mountains and lake from the 2nd floor balcony. The pool and hot tub were clean and well maintained. The bed was very comfortable, bedding and towels were clean & elegant. Everyone we came in contact with was so friendly and accommodating.

The pool was closed everyday from 10 -1pm for maintaince. Also, if your a non smoker, can't sit out on your patio to enjoy outside, because there were SO MANY smokers out on their patios smoking and all smoke comes over to your area. SO annoying!!! Second smoke can give people cancer too. This should NOT be allowed this day and age!!!

Loved the pool and hot tub. Warm day and felt great to take a dip after being sweaty all day. Proximity to big fork and beautiful flathead lake were wonderful. Property clean and staff friendly. Property is aging and could use a refresh of furnishings. Pool showing its age as well. All in all a good experience

Comfortable but outdated and noisy. Shower curtain was dirty and light fixtures throughout had cobwebs. Balcony was weathered and flooring was peeling up badly. Needs updating throughout. Not much for walking options - there was a path close by but it was actually a road in a residential area. There were unleashed dogs and it was not enjoyable. Restaurant/bar is not open daily, even during the summer months.

We stayed 4 days and 3 nights and learned on the 3rd day that housekeeping doesn't service the room except every 3 days. So I guess they serviced it the DAY WE CHECKED OUT? We were out of kleenex, almost out of TP, had to go to the front desk and ask for more soap and bath towels and we had to empty our own trash. Not very impressed due to the lack of service.

beautiful grounds. staff was very friendly. room was very comfortable. Only problems we had were that the fireplace (electric) was not working. It would have put out some heat, but was mainly aesthetic. So it was no big deal as there was another source of heating. And for some odd reason we could not get the TV to turn off. We finally had to unplug it. The remote worked as we could change the channels and volume control worked. It just wouldn't turn off. Other than that - I would definitely recommend this hotel. The attached restaurant, Riley's, was pretty awesome. We had a huge family gathering that basically took up the whole restaurant. They did a fantastic job of serving us and the food was good.

Location has very nice views and is easily accessible. Staff was professional and friendly. The facilities are well maintained, especially for its age. The only exception was the noisy plumbing. Squeaky sounds from the other rooms as the shower and toilets were used. That is the only reason I could not give a 5 star.

Room was spacious with a lovely view and while used and dated - seemed very clean.

Clean room, staff friendly. They wanted to charge me a pet fee for my service dog and I stated that I had NEVER paid for a service dog ANYWHERE in the USA. She said they are an independent and said I didn’t care. She relented and said ok and didn’t charge me. Mind you they only had 6 rooms rented. If you have a service dog I’d get that squared away before reserving.

Room was nicely done. I would rate higher but unstaffed after 9 PM. At 11 a pick-up load of young adults (teens??) used the parking for a party with the doors opened and music blaring. We could hear it from about 20-30 yards and inside the accomodations. Resturaunt/bar was closed the night we were there. We had an "lake view" room, which meant you could see a sliver of the lake if you set in the corner of the balcony.

Location was beautiful. Pool was great with an excellent view. Very family friendly. Rooms were more dated than they looked in photos on the site. We booked a deluxe one bedroom suite but were originally put in an open room with no separate bedroom. Apparently all rooms are described as “one bedroom suites”. Front desk staff were very helpful and accommodating and moved us to separate bedroom suite the next day. Would return again.

Also the gas station and Sip of Montana are walking distance in case you need anything. It was lovely, and the kids enjoyed the pool.

The property was incredibly quiet and I don't think I've ever slept so well away from home. The view of Flathead Lake was very nice and the pool overlooked it. The hot tubs were vital after hiking in the area and at Glacier. The restaurant was also very nice. There was a good selection of dishes, portions were large, prices were fair, and the service was great! When we come back, this will be our first choice for lodging.
