Room was not clean. Food crumbs and wrappers were under night stand and another table. I informed front desk and was told it would be corrected. It was not. Spoke to manager who explained that housekeeping was being done by an outside company and she would notify them immediately. She was very apologetic and I hope they get the issue resolved as otherwise our stay was good.

I enjoyed the river out on the balcony side. Very nice and peaceful stay.. all staff were courteous and helpful. There was only one thing that I didn't like. The shower curtain had a strong smell of a urine. Thanks, Lori

The room was not clean I had to ask someone to vacuum the next day, couldn’t lock the door from the inside, door stuck allot, the back door to the deck only had a small chain to lock it. They only vacuumed once the whole time I was there. I have pictures if you want them.

Our room was clean and i enjoyed sitting on the balcony listening to the babbling brook below. Great staff and location! Had the pleasure of seeing a bear while eating breakfast at the event center.
The shy bear that was just looking for a snack.

In order to enter the room I had to use excessive force and even push with my foot on the bottom corner of the door, since it was swollen in the frame. Once we finally got in the room, we were greeted by a wall of musty, damp air and even the smell of weed by the balcony door. The air smelled slightly better by the end of the trip, but was still noticeably musty by the end of the three days there. The room’s carpet was stained and had multiple burn marks around the fireplace. The ceiling also had many small rust colored stains. Moving on to the furniture, the single chair had a broken leg and the bed had one of the most uncomfortable mattresses I have slept on. That is all just in the main room. For the bathroom, the door would not fully close, and the grout in the shower and shower curtain both had mold. Beyond the room, the staff was nice but at least three times during check in said there were no refunds if we left early. Overall I was disappointed with Brookside Lodge and would not recommend it to anyone I know.
