This lodge is ideal for a historic feel, the convenience of being in the park, and the services and amenities. We loved spending time by the fire in the common area of the lodge, with a beverage from the lounge. They have the famous red bus tours here (we did not take one, regrettably) but we did a boat tour of Lake McDonald which I highly recommend. The rooms are older, but comfortable. We spent most of our time by the fireplace or outside exploring the park!
Lake McDonald Lodge looks like a nice place to stay, but more importantly it’s a place you should stop. There is a large camp store and plenty of parking and it gives you full access to the lakeshore. It’s also worth stopping at Lake McDonald. The stones that make up the lakebed look like jewels, with a vivid array of colours. If you come from St Mary, its also the ideal place to turn round and go back along GttSR. Its also a great place to stop for lunch.

The cabin is very simply furnished and really tiny, as is the bed. The carpet is disgusting. The shower curtain had mold stains. But the location is great! Lake McDonald is just a few steps away, which is a plus! The food in the restaurant was very good. Unfortunately, due to the impending end of the season, not all drinks were in stock.
