Riverhouse Lodge
The room was a little dated but clean, as a family with young children we loved this hotel! The pool area is really nice, they had bike rentals, a free shuttle to downtown, and the staff were really accommodating! We loved the river view!

Campfire Hotel
Loved it! The vibe was very campfire but you still get clean bathrooms and showers like a good hotel. It definitely fit the vibe we were looking for!

Cascade Lodge
The room was clean. The beds were comfortable--except maybe the pull-out bed in the couch. I didn't try it myself, but one of my sons slept on it and initially grumbled about it--but he did sleep! So I guess it wasn't that bad. Our only disappointment was that there was no breakfast, just coffee ...
