Skamania Lodge

If the view were the only feature here, it gets an excellent rating, but there is more! This was a beautiful, cozy, restorative, and relaxing place to be. I went for an event, but am formulating plans to take my family back here for a weekend or longer. It's close to Stevenson for lunches and such.

The glamping tents were fun and a great way to enjoy the forest but please bring noise canceling headphones. There is a train that passes right by the grounds every hour on the hour. It was intense. There are earplugs in the drawers of the room, but that along with the noise machine was not enough to have an undistrubed night of sleep.

Incredible location and views, truly breathtaking. Great value for the price. All staff members were friendly and helpful; guiding me to hiking trails or resolving any questions I had immediately.

The experience itself was beautiful. The area was fantastic. There’s a lot of things to do. It’s super nice, but I went there for a wedding and I was part of the Groomsmen And there was inclement weather, which we can’t control, but the facilities ended up having to push the wedding entirely to the right For multiple hours, waiting for the rain to seize it never did Which is not a huge deal, but where things really went bad was that our room which we stayed at called the “Washington room” it was a room designated specifically for the groomsmen and we had extended to stay till 12 o’clock for us to hang out after the wedding Upon the wedding, finishing, we walked into The Washington room and we find out that are Bags had been broken into and items were stolen to include items that were specifically bought by the groom to the groomsmen. We asked for the room to be locked and it wasn’t, there were multiple people who were not part of our wedding party at all from the time of 3:30 PM till 9 o’clock It wasn’t until one of the maid of honor happened to walk into the Washington room that she saw a random lady in there, Who is known by the people in the lodge to come in and out of that facility and do mischievous things then the bridesmaid called Security again to lock it. Nothing was told to us at all until after the wedding had ended. In fact it took a while for the security and managers to even believe us that the mess inside our room to include cigars being smoked in there and bottles of alcohol were in fact not ours. We specifically requested that room do to their being an out door area to smoke cigars after the weddings everything we had was opened and used inside the room while we were in the middle of our wedding.

the lodge and setting is great! the restaurant needs improvement - our kids did not enjoy their Kids Menu items (poorly prepared) and the Breakfast Buffet is mediocre. the kids love the pool and the outdoor setting.
