We had a dog with us, so we paid only $10 extra for a night to have her there too. I was very surprised by how nice the room is despite them knowing we'd have a dog there. The owners were helpful, check in was quick, and they were very VERY nice. Considering the area, I wonder if all the 'owners were so rude' comments were just veiled issues with their race, since there really aren't any other Chinese folks in the area.

We were on a trip from south central MO to eastern OK over 9 days and stayed in many hotels. Most…read moreof them were chains. This place competed equally with all of them, better than one of the chain hotels, and was the best of the independent hotels. The owners were helpful and the washer and dryer was a saving grace (they had plenty of quarters to cash our dollar bills and detergent to purchase). The rooms and bathrooms were clean. I only wished the water in the hot tub was truly hot and the pool was warm. Without a doubt, if I were in the area, I'd stay there again.

We decided to social distance ourselves for the Thanksgiving holiday and chose Montauk State Park…read morefor our RV spot for the week. Our anniversary being the weekend before Turkey Day, we decided to eat at the lodge for our special dinner. The food is home cooking, hot, and tasty. They offer a few specialty cocktails and a limited selection of wine and beer. The staff is friendly and clearly work hard together. Due to COVID and the off season, the main dining room was closed, but there are a few tables in the shop and snack bar area. The staff does not wear masks - we called ahead and were assured they did, so that was a disappointment. We loved the food, and the hospitality. Just wish they did observe COVID precautions.

I have been staying at this motel for around 40 years. Unfortunately, our last visit was a huge…read moredisappointment. They have taken out all vending machines, can't even get a bottle of water or a soda. We were there for ten days, no ice in the ice machine the entire time. We went to Walmart and bought new pillows because the motel pillows were flat and completely worn out. One of the best things about this motel has always been the pool. Not anymore, it's filthy dirty. Couldn't even see the bottom in the 7 foot end. But the reason we will NEVER stay there again is because they entered our room without our permission. They also entered the room next to ours without the guests permission. Both rooms had the Do Not Disturb sign out. Not sure what they were looking for, but they violated our 14th amendment rights.

I've probably been there 10 times over the past 20 years. Prior to Echo Bluff being built, we stayed at various places in Eminence (Rivers Edge, various B&Bs). The accommodations were always Spartan and it was almost impossible to find any restaurants that offered anything more than "Fried something" or hamburgers. All that has changed with Echo Bluff State Park Lodge. The Lodge has accommodations that are orders of magnitude better than what can be found in Eminence and the on-site restaurant has really good food and a menu that is large enough that one could eat several different meals at the Lodge without having to repeat and entree. There is a beautiful creek behind the lodge (about 150 yards) that you can put your lawn chair in, sit back and enjoy the cool stream water and the absolutely gorgeous view of the Bluff.

Like everyone else who has reviewed this hotel, we're traveling Route 66 and chose this place…read morebecause it was a recommended stop. It's quaint; a nice reminder of what life used to be for travelers. The room is clean and quiet and the bed comfortable. The decor, including the microwave and refrigerator, were chosen to provide a retro vibe. I just feel this could have been a lot better, especially for the price of the room. The manager was not here when we arrived at 5:00 pm and was unavailable by phone. It would have been nice to be able to talk to someone because this is kind of a remote area, no cell service and the wifi didn't work, so how could we know what's available around here? There were ants everywhere in the room, though I'm sure that's not normal for this place. The yard was nice (though showing some neglect), but we weren't sure where it was ok to sit and relax because -- again -- the management wasn't available. The ice machine was broken. TL/DR: Potentially nice, but for the money we've stayed in much better historic hotels on our route.

All the buildings had a musty smell. we were having a reunion here and I drove three other people or I would have left the next morning. happy Hour didn't have a bar tender. the food was meh. All that would have been no big deal, but there is no way around biotoxin illness from mold. Everyone in the cabin left sick. We were offered a different cabin but they all stunk! The real kicker? I was offered $25 off my entire bill which is a slap in the face for what we endured. STAY AWAY from this pace for your health!

Right off the highway and near our relative's house. The hotel itself was new and modern. Love the decor. Our room was clean and comfortable. We had a king bed and a pullout sofa. Having 2 TVs was nice to let the kids watch one and we had the other. Bed was comfy and shower was always hot. As for amenities, we used the fitness room daily. There was plenty of cardio equipment and my husband used the free weights. We planned to let the kids use the indoor pool but never got around to it. As for the breakfast, it is good. There is always some kind of eggs and meat (since we eat low carb, this is clutch.) There are also other options like homemade waffles, various breads, bagels, pastries, muffins, cereal, yogurt, oatmeal. One day they had cheese omelets but they were out. I asked a worker and they not only replenished them, she brought one over to me so I didn't have to get up. (So nice.) The workers here were all wonderful. Every single one of them were friendly and helpful. We definitely plan to stay here next time we're in town!
