The advertised pool times are inaccurate and the pool was closed early. I was also told the pool opened at 8am but the same person told a sibling it opened at 10am. Old uncomfortable beds that are advertised as queen but are closer to a full bed.

Best stay in Russell!

This was a rustic feeling lodge. The staff were super friendly. The entire site was very clean and maintained. We had a very relaxing stay with one of the best continental breakfasts we've had from a hotel. Our family would highly recomend this as a must stay place in Russell!
