Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Can't say enough about the LOGE. Quiet, peaceful, pristine and the staff very helpful and friendly. The food at the restaurant was the best we've had in Montana.
Beautiful views. Rooms aren’t fancy but not meant to be. But they are clean, comfy and have everything you need. Love the check in process (all online, no contact). I’ll definitely be back for another peaceful break.

Finding Caboose #6 was not good - there was no visible sign to road off highway - once you were on the road it was a dirt road with many potholes. There were signs to cabins but no signs to to caboose. I wouldn’t stay in that caboose area again. There was no bar open and no microwave to warm up pastry we bought
This refurbished hotel is near Glacier Park. It was originally called the Isaac Walton Inn. New owners have done a great job of renovation. It also has several remodeled caboose rail car accommodations. We stayed in one of these on an earlier trip with our two young grandsons and they loved it! A very friendly staff. This new remodel just opened Labor Day 2024

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This property is a historic hotel undergoing renovations. Some rooms are off site and need to be access by an unpaved dirt road. There is an elevated bridge that connects these room to the main lodge. The staff at the lodge are super friendly and can be reached anytime by text. Our room was off site. The room was large and the bed very comfortable.
We stayed for 6 nights and were gone most of every day. We did make it back one day for the dinner which was very good and the service was great. Lucas and his very friendly staff are doing a great job. If you stay across the tracks there is a bridge so you can leave your car by the LOGE or you can choose to go down the hwy and follow a primitive road back to your place. The trains do go by but they are slow and actually soothing (they do not blow their whistle) we stayed in room 402 which is newly updated and very nice.
We liked our visit to LOGE. The room was great, especially the bed, or I was really tired. It was a little hard to find the room location and the restaurant was unable to serve us, as the kitchen wasn’t working.
I was so excited to stay in a caboose with my four kids. The accommodation was cozy and clean. The staff assured us they would be available for any questions and requests as the lodge and lobby was closed. This wasnt true. Power went out without notice of why. We had to walk and ask. Guest laundry was closed or being used by staff. Hot tub drained. We went expecting some closures but not the complete lack of communication or service. We wont ever return even when everything is open. There is NOTHING to do on the property.

This property is not as advertised of Expedia. The website in the Expedia listing stated there was a restaurant a bar Jacuzzi lodge with multiple games like foosball and billiards and none of that was available and none of that was disclosed. We ended up being in a retrofitted antique caboose on the other side of a freight train yard required a 1.5 mile drive up and over the train tracks and then upper very rough dirt road with potholes to a spot on the ridge overlooking the train yard and the lodge there was a foot bridge that you could take to the lodge, but the lodge was being renovated and shut down, and there was no one really there to assist us in fact when we went over there, they wouldn’t even even assist us nor let us in. Staff is non existent None of this was disclosed until the day of check in when they sent saying we should go shopping first as the restaurant was closed. The oven did not light so we could cook our frozen pizza. This is a very isolated location had I’ve been disclosed at the restaurant and bar were not operating. We certainly would not have reserved there. I’ve been practicing a 30 for 30 years and I’ve never seen a more egregious false advertising situation in which customers are misled by the representations online and I am seriously considering a class action lawsuit against the company. We ended up, insisting to be let go of our reservation for the second night we left to go to elsewhere. Listing
Hotel is still under renovation and we did not find either front desk or Cafe. But instruction on the building/in the cabin is clear, key release is timely after registration, room is tight but clean and well equipped, surrounding forest is beautiful. Pleanty wild berries, too. Pleasant experience overall.
I have been visiting the Izaak Walton for most of my life and each time is special. Yes it might be an older building and have occasional problems related to age but the inn is possibly the most unique in all of Montana. The staff are always top notch and professional and the location is amazing!
Prices have climbed steadily in recent years. We love the Isaak walton! Hope we don't get priced out of being able to afford to stay

The hotel doesn’t take Expedia so why did you tell
Me I had reservations when I did not this is bad I will never use Expedia again. You need to fix this
This inn is steeped in history and is like going back in time to the 1940's. The rooms are clean, the premises delightful and the staff accommodating and friendly. The only down side is that the location is at least 1/2 hour from any services. The restaurant on premises is very good, but really the only option unless you travel. Be sure to bring some snacks to your room to tide you over. The only complaint we have is that we got a corner room on the second floor directly over the exhaust for the restaurant where the room smelled like a grill for late afternoons and early evenings. While we really preferred to have a corner room and are glad we did, the smell was an issue until it cleared out with the windows open around 11pm. Still, overall, it was a very good experience and we'd certainly recommend the Isaak Walton Inn.
