I gave two stars because the lodge outdoor area is beautiful and the husband was so nice.
Friendly family atmosphere

Rooms- the bed pillows were stained and the staples that hold the mattress pads down came off which my friend stepped on. The showers are falling apart also. Since they live on site, I was disappointed that the rooms were not in good condition.
So disappointed in this place. Husband and wife team run the lodge, which sounds great but they are definitely not on the same page and have conflicting policies. Husband is super accommodating but the wife seems irritated that anyone is there. Full house and at least four people were waiting for them to open the lobby area to check out, they ended up leaving out the back door. Breakfast- While we were willing to pay the $5 for the continental breakfast, the lobby (and that area) never opened until after 11:30am. No coffee, no food and no service- remember this place is in the middle of nowhere.
The lodge is family owned, do not let age fool you the owners know what they are doing! They live within the lodge and tend to guests as they need while giving space so you don't feel like you're being watched. The guest quarters are exceptional, each room is individually heated so everyone is always comfortable! The room we stayed in 1B was very clean and free of bugs. They provide cleaning services unless you put up a 'do not disturb' sign, they are respectful to one's privacy. They also provide breakfast options : continental breakfast ($5 per person add-on) or their breakfast pasty (pass-tee; $7) which is freshly made every morning by 8am. They are currently under renovation for our benefit so please note the Mimosas/Bloody Mary breakfast option is currently unavailable as of Sep, 29, '17 but will be back after updates! Until then you can always head downstairs to the bar lounge where they offer a great selection of alcohol as well as entertainment. If nobody is there just let the owner know and they'd be more than happy to open it up for you! This lodge also offers outdoor lounging ;whether it's right out your back door to the benches or just a short walk back to the fire pit! The atmosphere is very serene and peaceful, everyone respects their peers and you can't put a price on that! Well worth the price and the only way to stay when far from home! Find your new comfort sleep here at Black River Lodge!
Stayed here a few years ago in high school with the ski and snowboard club. The rooms were nice and clean, a kitchen in the rooms on the bottom floor staff were friendly and it was a nice place to stay for a couple nights
Was very satisfied with service. Rooms are a little dated but the price is great and location is awesome for a getaway. Paths to hike behind the lodge were great. Being able to bring our dog was a huge perk. Will definitely book here again if we travel that way.
