Rustic Beaverfoot Lodge Room N5

The pictures are totally false. The lodge and property might have looked this way years ago. The place was falling apart. We pulled up and there was a wrecked car sitting there. There was water gushing over the drive when we pulled in. We were met by a dog that would not let us to the door which was open to the outside. He was growling at us. A lady came out and asked if we needed a reservation. She said she just was asked to come over that day so didn't know what to do. We told her we had a reservation and the room so she took us there. On the way she pointed out that the shared men's restroom was out of order. In the room she hurried up and picked up what looked like possible dirty towels and said sorry. No other towels were there. There were no other guests there. We did not stay because we felt totally unsafe. We messaged the property owner but he would not respond to us. We had to go find another place to stay and now are out this money. We should be refunded since this was false advertising and was not at all what we paid for.

Fue una experiencia horrorosa. No reserven aquí. Nos recibió una pareja de malas maneras y al segundo desaparecieron. No tiene electricidad y usan un generador por unas horas. Lugar decadente, con olor a animales muertos, ratones correteando por ambas plantas. Con la mala suerte de que esa noche no se alojó nadie más, estuvimos completamente solas, sin luz, con animales correteando por un pasillo y comiéndose un sandwich (porque no limpian y había restos de huéspedes anteriores en otras habitaciones). Aunque había muchos ruidos y no había luz, no había a quien dirigirse y no nos contestaron por el teléfono que ponen de contacto. No pudimos ni cenar ni desayunar.

A fuir !! Une odeur nauséabonde, un ménage absent (mouchoirs sales et poubelles pleines) et pas d’eau chaude ni d’électricité (sans parler de la wifi) en dehors des faibles heures de fonctionnement d’un générateur bruyant.
Bref un cauchemar !!

Zero effort into hospitality and upkeep of this property. It's a shame because it could be a real gem, but it has fallen into disrepair due to neglect. The electricity is off for most of the day, shower is cold, facilities are dirty, there is a constant smell of sewage, there is nobody to help onsite. We expected rustic, but this was particularly terrible. We couldn't leave fast enough.

Tout le reste ! Le lieu est sale à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur, particulièrement dans les parties communes : souris vivantes et mortes, draps sales, poubelles qui débordent sans que cela ne semble affecter le personnel, lampe défectueuse, aucun évier dans la cuisine, abords mal entretenus...

I am an avid traveler and was looking for a good place to sleep while enjoying a trip to explore the National parks - did not need to be fancy. However, there are some vital details missing from this listing. The first is that the lodge is equivalent to a hostel. I stayed in room 5N and there are a series of 2 inch holes drilled into the floor for some reason that lead to the kitchen area. As a result, I could hear (and smell) everything from the kitchen, which is of course a shared area. Finally, there is some sort of cistern inside the lodge that is connected to the sewer. The first night there was a terrible smell throughout the building, which we couldn't place and staff said they didn't notice - which is impossible. But we arrived late and just wanted to sleep. The next day, we expressed concern again and noticed the indoor well area and the smell was very strong coming from it. I spoke to several people and no one directly spoke to my concern. However, when we arrived back a pump was going and I think they were clearing out the water. Anyway, we decided not to stay at another place for the rest of our trip. It was really concerning to us that the staff wouldn't answer our questions about the smell or the well inside the lodge. I think it's important to note here for others looking to stay.

This was an extremely disappointing stay. The bedroom lighting was not working, there was no hot water, and there were no staff available to help resolve any of these issues.
The toilets on the first floor were dirty and poorly maintained, and the mosquito screen on the bedroom window was damaged and ineffective, allowing insects into the room.
To make matters worse, the hotel is located in a very remote area that requires driving approximately 13 km on a rough gravel road. While traveling to the hotel, I got a flat tire and had to spend a couple of hours dealing with the repair. There was no internet connection in this area. After driving on the gravel road, my car was completely covered in dirt, and I had to make an extra stop at a car wash.
I would not recommend staying here. I was confused that Booking proposed such "hotels".

OH... here is the list. First... it took us almost 90 minutes to find the resort. Consider putting up a sign or two. We originally booked in the lodge. When we arrived and walked into the lodge it stunk- like the smell was horrendous and unbearable. My hair smelled for 2 days! Also, if you are allergic to cats, like I am, they have a cat in there, and it doesn't look like they have cleaned for some time. Everything was dingy. Tim was super great, and we agreed to stay and rent the "Dream" cabin (for an additional fee- but that was ok with us). The Dream Cabin is super cute.. however, they don't tell you on the website that all of the electric/power is turned off at 10:30 each night. And then, in the morning, I woke up and text Tim about turning the electric back on (as we couldn't charge our phones, take a shower, nothing...) and he finally turned it on at 10:45am- much, much later getting out and doing things than we wanted/planned- but without charged phones, we had no GPS. If you want rustic, this is the place- but, I think no electricity should be advertised on the website!

Quelle déception. Le strict minimum en matière d’accueil n’est pas assuré. Nous n’avons pas eu d’eau chaude pendant toute la durée du séjour, sans avoir été prévenus au préalable. Des coupures d’électricité sont survenues dès le début de la soirée et ont duré jusqu’à notre départ le lendemain. Il n’y avait pas de Wi-Fi, et le personnel, très peu présent, n’était pas en mesure de répondre à nos besoins les plus élémentaires. La cuisine n’en est pas vraiment une : le réfrigérateur est tombé en panne pendant la nuit (à la suite de la coupure de courant), il n’y avait ni plaque de cuisson ni évier. C’est particulièrement contraignant lorsque le logement se trouve à 41 km du supermarché le plus proche. Dans notre chambre, la fenêtre ne fermait pas en raison d’une poignée cassée, et la moustiquaire était endommagée, laissant entrer des dizaines de moustiques. Nous remercions malgré tout le personnel présent sur place, qui a fait de son mieux pour nous aider, mais dont les efforts étaient limités par le délabrement de l’établissement.
Au vu de notre expérience, ce logement ne répond pas aux standards que l’on est en droit d’attendre d’une annonce sur Booking.

Personnel quasi inexistant. L’électricité et l’eau chaude sont en option… C’est dommage de devoir demander au personnel de faire démarrer un groupe électrogène de chantier pour avoir de la lumière. Nous avons dû aller dans une autre lodge du domaine pour prendre une douche chaude (pas d’eau chaude dans le bâtiment principal).
La cuisine commune ne possède pas de plaques de cuisson pour cuisiner ni d’évier.
Le personnel ne savait pas si l’eau était potable.

Nous y sommes allés en fin de mois de Mai donc 10 degrés dehors. Il n'y avait pas de chauffage, pas d'électricité, pas d'eau chaude. Les lattes de notre lit étaient cassées, il nous en restait une qui nous supportait, nous n'avons pas dormi de la nuit.
Le logement est à 45 minutes d'une ville, donc prenez de uoi manger, tout en prenant en considération qu'il y a peu d'éléctricité, donc pour réchauffer vos choses: c'est compliqué.

Fenster schloss nicht, Stechmücken kamen rein. Abends rattert eine Diesemaschine, dann ist der Strom weg. Es gibt nur kaltes Wasser. WLAN kriegt man auf Nachfrage durch Sharing mit dem Handy der Mutter des Hosts. Es gibt viele workarounds, die halb funktionieren.

Lauter Generator vor der Tür, der Strom für die Unterkunft erzeugt, der abends ausgeschalten wird und auch erst wieder abends angemacht wurde, sodass es ab 00:00 Uhr kein Internet mehr gibt und nur noch einen Reststrom für gewisse Lichter (auch der Kühlschrank in der Küche ist dann aus).

The logging road into the place was significantly damaged due to the rain. We were in a Nissan Rogue SUV and made it, but it requires nerve and patience to navigate the 12 km to the site.

Quite a bumpy road to get to property of which I wasn’t aware and in a vehicle that was suited for this drive! A little quirky (no towels, window didn’t shut, power wasn’t on initially).
