Didn't stay at the hotel but had lunch in the restaurant. We had buffalo burgers and found them average. Nothing exceptional.
The lodge was located next to the Ben Reifel Vistors Center which I found convenient.

Very nice, large room . Well appointed. Terrific views. Has a front and back porch to sit and enjoy the view! Great shower with plenty of hot water. I would stay there again.
