Cowlitz River Lodge

Cowlitz River Lodge

8/10 Good
"The location of Cowlitz River Lodge was great in proximity to town area (walkable) and easy enough to drive into the Sunrise and Paradise Lodges in MRNP. Plenty of parking. There was only 1 washer and dryer, so it was always in use when I tried to use it. The floors had been swept but definitely not mopped and the table was sticky. Good thing I travel with wipes. Every evening there was at least 1 elk in the area at the back of the hotel, that was amazing. Great place to stargaze too."
