“Cold and unfriendly”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

people found this review helpful

We waited over 45 minutes to check in (and it wasn’t because they were busy). Upon finally being helped, we were informed that despite having made the reservation with a credit card online, we could only pay in cash. We were sent 4 or 5 miles down the road to an ATM to take out money for our stay. The very rude clerk didn’t even offer an apology for our inconvenience. When we finally got into our room, the heat was off. The temperature outside was -3 and our room was no warmer. It was as if they weren’t expecting guests, despite our reservation. Even after we cranked the heat, the room never got warm. The woman at the desk made it clear she didn’t want to be bothered with helping us, and that included giving us our ski passes that were supposed to be included in the room. And after all that, they still charged my credit card. When I called to dispute it, the woman seemed completely put out to have to help me. Worst experience at a hotel I've ever had.

“For the price... Not bad at all!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2011 via mobile

This old motel has a lot of the charm. The owner is a great old fella who takes good care of you. The room was a little dated but very clean and warm. Tv, fridge, decent bathroom and wifi! Only coffee in the morning but for $40 I really cannot expect much more.

I wish the backside of the motel was open with its balconies facing the covered bridge and river!

“Warning to others - don't stay here!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

if you are thinking about staying here DON'T prepay and DON'T provide your credit card details before you see the room. It is nothing like the website photos. We prepaid for several nights in a 2 bedroom suite, and were shown to a dirty insecure (sliding door not lockable) unit up a filthy staircase. No proper curtains. Dubious hygiene The hosts were unfriendly, bordering on hostile, and distinctly unhelpful when we first arrived. This turned to nastiness when we said we would not take the room, and asked for a refund of all but the first night's charge. A refund was refused, and they became abusive.
They are doing Jackson a huge disservice as the other people we met in that area were helpful and nice.

Room Tip: Go elsewhere!

Thank you for your reservation. As many may know, a reservation, in itself is a commitment, and therefore we have guaranteed a room on your behalf. We couldn't sell your reservation to another person(s), who may have reserved gladly, because you have occupied a timeframe. Whenever services are rendered, we require payment for those services. Since your visit, we are updating the 2 bedroom suite. We are installing new floors, new carpet, a new sliding door, which opens to the balcony and over looks the river. We are buying new living room sleep sofa, new curtains, and freshly painting the hallway entrance. We have already installed new doors. We are sorry the suite was not suitable for you, however no one else had complained until you. Understanding that we are nothing spectacular; that is why we dropped the rate for you. Rest assured your payment will be put to good use, so that no future guests will dislike the room.

“Warm and friendly owners”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2011

people found this review helpful

My 5 year old grandson and I spent several days at the lodge. It was a great location just up the road from Storyland away from the congestion of the towns below.
The hotel was pleasant. The living room felt just like home nicely decorated with a simple continental breakfast daily. Our room was simple but clean with a nice balcony overlooking the river and the large grounds for children to roam.We enjoyed the nightly bonfire with the roasting of extra large marshmellows supplied by the lodge.
The owners were always very attentive to him which made his first overnite experience away from home most pleasant.
We met several other families with children, one of which comes back every year with their 3 children. We plan to do the same next year as the the location, the accomodations and the friendliness of the hosts was most appreciated.

Me and my wife stayed 4 nights in the Covered Bridge Lodge. We had a great time. Our room was spotless every night we cameback from site seeing. Very relaxing. I do not know what other guests complain about. We are coming back next year for a week. Thanks for being so nice and having us as your guests. We will recommend this Motel to our friends.
