The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast off site was free and very good, bacon, eggs, potatoes. The property is advertised as a cabin, it is not a cabin, it is a classic drive up motel in the parking lot of a gas station. The room was dark, a light in the coffee station area would help. And, if you want the ceiling fan on, you had to have the light on. It was an adequate stay for the price, but don’t expect a stand alone cabin as advertised.

Don’t be scared of other reviews!

Amazing place! Yes it’s in a gas station parking lot - but it’s not your average, sketchy station. It is a nice clean station. There is also a coffee/gift shop on the other side of the station, as well as another small shop. Both are lovely and have souvenirs to purchase (coffee/chocolates/huckleberry jams/Rowe Casa products/taffy candy/stickers) Yes the highway is right in front of the lodge - the road noise can be loud, but if you are from the south and are accustomed to needing noise to sleep, turn on the AC unit and youll go right to sleep. Yes you have to drive 8 miles north to Ninepipes for breakfast - but the drive is gorgeous and the food is worth the trip. The staff are friendly and helpful. The cabin has great views of the mountains. And the space is perfect and cozy for a couple. We would 10/10 stay at this lodge again.

Tips for staying at Big Medicine Cabins

This room apparently has been recently renovated. It was clean. What was needed, because the weather turned unexpectedly cold, was an extra blanket. We had to call another office down the road to get a code to get in the room. The phone rang for 10 minutes until they answered. So be sure to call there before 10pm to get the code! The receptionist might be happier;!

Nice, affordable stay.

The room worked perfectly for our needs. Was newer and nicer than expected. Heater/ air conditioner is a bit loud, but works ok. Beds are comfortable.

The first room we checked into had a broken bed. They moved us to another room. We were told we would be moved back to original room the next day. Not knowing expectations I called and was told to stay where we were which did. Otherwise it was a good stay. We stayed there years ago, under prior owners. It is very different and much cleaner. We will stay again.

Interior was incredibly dark. One overhead light with a fan that could not be turned off. One night stand with one light and that’s it. No dresser and only 2 hangers. Had to use the light on our phone to find the coffee maker. Never, ever again.

Had to switch cabins as toilet had no water to flush. Next cabin had bad lamp by the bed that was touch activated that changed without touching when it worked. Heater in bath had no knob. Heat/ac fan had a squeal. Cabin was pretty dark inside.

Located next to gas station and highway. Some highway noise, but slept through it. The cabins are adorable! Easily unload from car to cabin. Assistance phone number tied to 24 hour answering service. Daisy was pleasant to work with and get self check in directions. Excellent view of mountains. CKST Bison Range close by ( highly recommend to see wildlife and very scenic red route taken.) Spotted 2 black bears, diamondback rattlesnake, elk, prong, bison and antelope in safety of the car.

The cabin was fine for an overnight. But is noteworthy that is in a gas stayion parking lot on a busy highway. That just is what it is, but one of our beds had a very old mattress that was saggy and uncomfortable.
