Red Lodge Resort

We stayed for two nights in the Hitchin' Post cottage which was nestled in the trees with views over the lake. The cottage was very pleasant to stay in, measured about 360 square feet and was well supplied with equipment but not with personal supplies. it was quiet and relaxing. The early mornings were chilly but an excellent fan heater soon warmed thing up. There was a shower but no tub, and no TV or internet. There is next to no illumination in the grounds which is wonderful for star watching but not so good for finding your way home on foot. Bring a flashlight. We dined at the in-house rustic restaurant both nights. The menu is enticing but the cooking is rather bland. The main courses are much too large and we negotiated smaller platters on the second night. Nevertheless, a major reason for choosing the Red Lodge was that it had a restaurant and we certainly didn't regret it. All the staff members that we met were a joy to talk to and were eager to make our visit a pleasant one.

My father and I had the pleasure of staying at Red Lodge on our way to South Baynouth, On. Everything about Red Lodge was "spot on". Our room was super clean and well appointed. Dinner at the restaurant was excellent. The grounds and buildings are well kept. The setting is spectacular with beautiful views of Manitou Lake (largest freshwater lake on the largest freshwater island in the world). Entire staff was very friendly and wonderful.
