Lonesome Dove Guest Ranch, Kalispell

Lonesome Dove Guest Ranch has various lodging options, including cabins and tepees. I stayed in the a bedroom in the main house. On the bright side, it is a funky rustic setting, with various animals running about. The breakfast is in a dining room which functions like a restaurant, except you don't pay. Some of the staff are gruff, but everyone is more or less accommodating. Things were old, but clean. On the not so bright side, every nook and cranny of the room was filled with the owners' possessions, so there was no way to put anything away or hang anything up. As you might expect in an older house, there was an electric outlet shortage and the lighting was extremely dim. It is located about 5 miles from town, and there is a stretch of very dusty dirt road involved at the end. All in all, I thought it was OK, especially considering the price, which was half of anything else available in the area.

I had a very good stay! There were plenty of blankets, the bed was comfortable, and breakfast was excellent! The bathhouse wasn't perfect, but it was clean enough for me. I will stay here again next time I'm in the area.

Everything was great and the staff was so friendly! The only issue was the cleanliness of the room. I actually had to buy a broom and sweep the dust off the floor and from under the bed. The bathroom was not in the best shape either. However, the breakfast was amazing and the atmosphere was wonderful as well. We had a pleasant stay!

Very nice place, a little out of the way. It was quiet and the owners and breakfast waitress were all very friendly and helpful.
