And, forget about being able to recharge all your devices at once (being an older building, there very few easily accessible outlets). But, if you want a place that is clean and comfortable, and the staff nice, then this is a good place to lay your head for the night. While this small (only 12 or so rooms) motel is a bit out dated, it's one if the cleanest places that I've ever stayed at (eby - even before Yelp :-D ). The staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is the standard Continental affair. Being old school (or, maybe just old, ugh), I was surprised that being an independent place, they didn't have cash discounts. So, to me, the price of $96 seems a bit high to me for a bare-bones place like this. Also, something they do that I wasn't happy to see: they write your c/c and CVV numbers down in case of damage to the room. I just hope they destroy it to where it can't be used. Now, I gotta watch my card more closely.

I love this place. Very cool boutique hotel in a cool town…read more Room: really clean and well maintained. If you get the Ralph White suite, good on you! You feel the history in the decor, woodwork, etc. I wished we could've stayed more nights but they were all booked. Service: super friendly and helpful, great staff. Price: very affordable. ~200/nt off season. The lobby is gorgeous, lots of great history, charm and character. I'm definitely coming back when I'm in town.

We were very fortunate recently to spend 3 nights at Burnt Out Lodge. It is a truly unique place…read moreto relax. Your first view of the log cabin lodge reveals an unpretentious structure that is very roomy inside with a large common room that serves as a gathering/breakfast space, seeming to be, with the loft, a nice facility for groups. The Lodge is constructed of logs that remained after a fire consumed 12,000 acres including much of the ranch. The hosts Ruth and Blick shared their story about the building of the lodge which we found fascinating. Our rooms were very spacious with cathedral ceilings with outside entrances/porches. A pond lies just outside the Lodge and a stream just steps further(our fishing skills were too limited to take advantage of those opportunities). Cattle graze all around the site as part of its ranch setting in the coulee and we saw turkeys and deer along the road. Breakfasts were simple but good with large portions and very accommodating (we needed breakfast at 7 AM and it was on the table right on time each day). The long rock/dirt lane road made us wonder whether we were in the right place but signage assured us that we were. The road also encouraged us to stay in during the evenings which was fine for us and resulted in a very tranquil stay. This was our first exposure to Montana "ranch" life and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Large…read morekitchen, well-equipped, commercial-size gas range and oven, walk-in fridge and separate walk-in freezer, plenty of counter space. Preparing meals together was a valuable experience during the reunion. Six individual rooms like hotel rooms -- private bath, closet and area to unpack suitcases, towels, linen, roll-away beds, clock-radios, porch-space outside. High ceilings and quaint log construction. Large common area for dining and socializing. Internet by satellite -- adequate for Email and web, but you won't be streaming video. Cell phones out of range, but you can get cell service by driving 1.5 miles up the road to the ridgetop. Hiking and some fishing on the stream nearby. Large pond for a canoe or raft. Garden flowers and green lawn. Cattle on the surrounding ranch are entertainment. Near enough to Big Timber. The only shortcoming: this area recovering from a fire a few years ago; surrounding hillsides show dead twisted trees with new trees only beginning to grow -- namesake "Burnt Out" lodge. Would certainly go back again; would certainly recommend.

Another couple came in ( we were the only people in the restaurant) and she took their order as I was on the phone with my husband. I had just come from the Billings hospital, and on our way home and thought that the Grand would be a great place to get a bite of food. The waitress intentionally went about clearing tables, washing glasses and refused to wait on us. After about 20 minutes we realized she was not interested in helping us. When we got up to leave she continued to be rude. I will never go back. People like that should not be in the "service" industry. We have been stopping g there for years. The bartender was very nice but this woman ruined our afternoon.

Later, 6 weeks prior to our visit had to cancel and never got deposit refunded. When we called regarding the deposit we were told that deposits were non-refundable. Remember I was NEVER asked for a deposit so now they have $200 deposit that wasn't asked for in the first place. Everyone needs to be aware of this policy because I sure wasn't informed. I would recommend a wonderful place to stay in Big Timber, The Grand Hotel!

If you want a real Montana horseback riding experience through some of the best scenary in the country, you should book a trip to the 63 immediately.
