The hotel is ok...but missing several things I expect from a property billing itself as four stars: -some of the staff was kind, but more than one were short or rude. -hotel does not provide shampoo or conditioner. Unbelievable for a four star property. If you want it, you must go and buy it during regular business hours at the rec center. -New towels are provided only on Tuesdays at the towel exchange. Not very helpful when your stay is Thursday through Sunday. -You are fined if you do not wash the dishes and empty the dishwasher and take out the trash in your own room. this is buried in the checkout instructions (when was the last time you opened a room folio to even read the check out instructions at a hotel). Pretty draconian since it's very non-standard for other properties. See my pictures. This and many other rules are excessive and controlling. Cameras everywhere with staff coming to question your compliance with minutia -Felt on edge all weekend due to staff not picking at us and kids. Not a good place to relax.

My parents are timeshare owners here. We first visited 30 years ago and made it back this summer…read morefor a family vacation. The rates we paid were really reasonable, but not certain if these are available to everyone or not. Our family is 4 mini families and we were each able to get our own rooms of various sizes, all with kitchens. This allowed us plenty of privacy and time to decompress while still letting us utilize the amenities together. The rooms were nice and clean, no complaints there, all had balconies. We had a couple barbecues at the community picnic areas, made good use of the recreation center, toyed around with the driving/putting range and dined a couple times at the golf course restaurant. My Dad played the golf course but it seems that the other clientele do not enjoy having people on the course who are not skilled at the game. The rec center has a variety of things to do from net sports, to racquetball, to basketball, pool, hot tub, steam room, etc. We enjoyed the saltwater pool and hot tub, although it is very bizarre to me that you have to walk down a hall dripping wet and freezing to access the hot tub/steam room. The hot tub is big so at least you are unlikely to walk over there and find it too full to get in. We were able to do water aerobics one day, but these really should be offered more frequently. There is a mini golf course on site which does cost an additional fee, there are also bikes available to rent. A trail circles the resort, some of it paved, some of it dirt. I hear you can fish here, but none of us did that. Seems you can not swim in the lake. This is a bit of a drive from most things so if you want to go to restaurants and places like Silverwood, Courdelane, Sandpoint, etc be prepared to spend a lot of time in the car. I would have preferred to stay somewhere that was closer to things to do. There is not much to do here once it gets dark. Some of the staff were not the friendliest.

Searched for lodging in/around Loon Lake, WA and was returned with this property. What wasn't…read moreclearly evident via their website, there are actually two separate establishments. One is the LL Motel and the other is the Wilderness Inn & RV Park. Both of these appear on just one website with the Motel showing first. As such, as one scrolls down looking at the various rooms, at first glance and you'd presume it's just one property, what appears to be a multi-story house and in front of it, a row of about 8 rooms all side-by-side each other. Not catching what the website was showing, I made a reservation at what I thought was the motel. In fact, it was the Inn although I went to the motel to check-in but this business does everything via Text msg. Meaning, there's no front desk with someone behind it when one arrives. After one's res is confirmed, you're sent info via Text where it's explained that you will receive a code that you enter into a mechanical device to retrieve your key to your room [an actual housekey] that's at the front of the property. The problem with this though, I received back-to-back Txt msgs and the 2nd one was rather lengthy, hence, I missed a picture of the actual property I had a res for, the Inn. Had to place a call when the code I was entering wouldn't work so I couldn't collect the key. At this point and I'm told I have a room not at the motel but at the Inn and I'm given directions on where it's located. Not mentioned on the website, the Inn, it faces the traffic circle [within spitting distance] that intersects US Hwy 395 and WA Hwy 292 which means you'll hear truckers gearing down to go through the circle until 10 or 11 pm. Terrific. It appeared as if this Inn is undergoing refurbishment so not all rooms were ready to be used. I grab my bag and hit the stairs. The risers on a few steps, they're not all the same length. No big deal... but if one uses a cane. Upon entering the room and it's noticeable, there's space so 2 people aren't going to be bumping into each other and the door doesn't hit the bed. There's a fake fireplace opposite the bed with a lounge chair and ottoman in front of it. It sits low to the floor so if you're over 6' in height, it can be a challenge to get out of as this chair has no arms. The room was sufficiently appointed but it didn't take this traveler long to figure out, the room had been sitting vacant for some time. The tell-tale signs: a good amount of dust on various horizontal surfaces was present and all the lights in the room, their shades had cobwebs. While the AC/Heater does have a filter, it had not been cleaned in quite sometime. Soaps & shampoos in small bottles sat atop the sink and a rack on the opposite wall had plenty of towels. What would have been nice, some sink counterspace to set down one's shaving kit. There isn't any so it's either the top of the toilet, above the refrigerator, or if you're so inclined, the floor. As I called it a night, after I turn off the lights, the room is still lit up in the bathroom [it's open to the room, there's no door]. Turns out, the hair dryer has a built-in light and it's plugged in. Outta bed to unplug the device and that does the trick. Or so I thought. But lying in bed and now I've got a brand new light source, and one I can't UNPLUG. Once the sun sets, outside lights turn on. But this is now the reason why I've got half my room lit up with a nice beam of light! And this beam, it's coming from the doorjamb from top to bottom, meaning the length of the door. So what's causing all this light to enter the room? Welp, in this case, between the side of the door and the jamb, there's a 3/8th's inch GAP. Exactly, large enough to let the outside lights shine nice and brightly into the room. To resolve this situation, I scrounged up items within the room to place between the door and the jamb so I could eventually fall asleep. There was just one more thing I took issue with, which I came upon on my last night's stay. While reading a map, I looked up at the ceiling. I notice the smoke detector but after staring at it, I realize, something's missing. There's no LED that should blink every couple of seconds. No LED means no power or dead battery. So I remove the detector. It's hardwired and unplugged. I plug it in and it starts to beep. It doesn't stop. This is why it's disconnected. I leave notice to the owner via a short note about what you've read here and what does she do? In a nutshell, she goes off the rails and comes unglued and complains to this CUSTOMER about what I came across. I text back: "hey cupcake, you're in the hospitality industry and don't like constructive FEEDBACK, especially when a nonfunctioning safety device IS NOT WORKING, thereby jeopardizing MY LIFE, really????

Interesting lake as much of the north side road is actually on the water. The park has play ground equipment which is great for kids under 10 or so. Jamie and Dave are gracious hosts, help you park rig, run store with great ice cream and always ready to help out with any needs. Virtually no road noise and zero highway as it's miles away made for nice quiet outdoor activities. I spent many days mountain biking on logging roads and quad paths. Not much single track but tremendous views from north and south mountains. We spent 35 days and plan on the same next summer. Many of the spots are seasonal folks with families. Sometimes pressed quiet hours to 11pm but quiet music, talking and laughter is kinda the thing on weekends. Silent weekdays. ​One of our favorites for down to earth folks and activities.

Overwhelming dog urine smell and no help from staff We…read morestayed in one of the "condos" (bottom floor rose bud)and the experience was disappointing from the start. The place reeked of dog urine the entire time. There was no air conditioning and no screen door, so we couldn't even open the door to get some fresh air without letting bugs in. A week before our arrival I specifically called to confirm this was not a dog-friendly property and was told there were absolutely no dogs allowed in the condos. That clearly wasn't the case. We reported the smell to staff. They admitted they already knew about it and said they would call us with a solution. No one ever called. We ended up going to the store ourselves for carpet freshener and a kids-and-pets odor eliminator, then had to ask for a vacuum (which they did provide). None of it made a meaningful difference. The second bed was in the living room right in the middle of the urine smell, so the other couple we were sharing the condo with slept in their car both nights. Would not recommend. The property needs to address the odor issues properly and communicate honestly about the condition of the unit.

Been to Trinity at Willow bay a couple times now this summer and I have always been satisfied…read more Plenty of seating on big decks, with shade or sun, and great service. You can easily pull the boat up hop out sit down and have a quick or slow meal, they let you take it at your pace here. They have a full bar and the bartender puts out a good pour. Down side on the drinks is that prices are a little high for the area, but with the view who can complain. I have had the calamari and buffalo shrimp appetizers and they were very well prepared. They have several choices of fries and I would recommend them all, especially the sweet potato fries. I have had the black and tan fish and chips and it rocks. The batter is a welcome change from the usual. I have also tried their grilled Cesar salad and it is unique and quite tasty. Do yourself a favor, get on a boat and take a slow cruise down the Pend O'reille river and stop at Trinity at Willow bay. Sit back have a cocktail, listen to some music and let the day slip away.
