My friend and I just spent a weekend hiking near Neosho, and we stayed at the Best Western Big…read moreSpring Lodge. What a delightful place! Every single staff member was wonderful, from the folks at the front desk to the breakfast ladies to the housekeepers to the maintenance men. Julio was very helpful when I called ahead of time with questions about our reservation. Special kudos to Dezaray at the front desk, who was on duty all weekend. She is the epitome of hospitality! We felt so welcomed on check-in; she was friendly and efficient and gave us lots of information about local sites and restaurants. My friend and I played board games in the evenings on both nights of our stay, and Dezaray was so accommodating: turning down the volume on the TV so we could hear each other and making sure we had snacks and drinks available. We chatted with her about our adventures each day and gave her feedback about her restaurant recommendations. It was such a good feeling to walk in the front door and see Dezaray at the front desk, welcoming us "home". Thank you! The breakfast every morning (included in the cost of the room) was EXCELLENT! They had lots of different fresh fruit (bananas, apples, oranges and blueberries) as well as dried apricots and other healthy options. The buffet included everything from eggs to breakfast meats to potatoes to yogurt to breads to the marvelous waffle machine. And, of course, milk (including soy milk) and juices and coffee! There was always ample seating (although we were there at opening each day, and it may get busier later in the morning). We appreciated having the water coolers in the breakfast area and gym room to keep our water bottles full. Our room was spacious and well-appointed, with two queen-size beds, a bureau (which also contained the room fridge and microwave and held the TV), nightstand, armchair, desk area with office chair, closet and bathroom. We appreciated the European model of the toilet and shower/tub being separated from the sink/vanity area. Despite the lodge's proximity to the highway, our room was quiet and we both slept well. It was easy to adjust the temperature (which was handy since our window faced east). The housekeeping staff was very accommodating, as we declined full services but asked for fresh towels each day. We were sad that the pool wasn't open yet, but we understand, given the cooler weather. We were also sad that there was no hot tub available, as that would have been very nice after hiking all day. There is a gym room which looks like it's filled with all necessary equipment, but we never used it. The lodge's location is very handy: adjacent to Hwy 60, near drug stores and restaurants, and just a few minutes from downtown Neosho. The area is very safe: well-lit with grassy areas surrounding the property for guests with pets to exercise. We did encounter two maintenance issues during our stay. The first was that the tub stopper would not stay in the "up" position to drain the tub while taking a shower (we used a clothespin to keep it open). The second was a faint odor of mold from the carpet underneath the vanity/sink, where there must have been a prior leak. I brought both of these issues to the attention of the manager as I was checking out, and she promised to address them. My friend said how much she enjoyed staying at the Big Spring Lodge, and I agree! We will definitely return on our next visit to the Neosho area. Thank you for a marvelous stay!

They actually left out some cereal and milk on Saturday morning which was very nice. The room we stayed in was comfortable and fitted. There were some stains on the floor in various areas on the carpet. On the floor above us there seemed to be a track and field event being held because we heard constant running and jumping for hours on end throughout multiple times. The bathrooms by the lobby were broken, but the ones in the room worked fine. The people working here were all nice. The first set of keys they gave us only worked for the first day and they had to fix them the next day. Overall good stay for the cheap price.

The only thing I would have liked would be something on the bottom of the tub to give feet traction when getting in and out but there was a handle so that helped a lot. There was a huge window that overlooked the forest with a little birdfeeder that was very popular. Management was super responsive when we had questions. The location is about a 5 min drive from downtown (which was such a nice area). The week we stayed was very rainy so we didn't spend too much time on the porch but honestly everything was so cozy inside with huge views so we felt like it was perfect anyway. I would stay here again and again and again! (The photos on the website are near perfect of what to expect when you arrive too)

I get that, but an immediate phone call back would have been appreciated.

The lady on the phone talked to me while I was meandering around the area in my truck on a dark road. Thank goodness!! She was so accommodating! For example: the number of nights I wanted to stay. Minimum is two nights. I was allowed to stay one. After I was assigned to one cabin, she allowed me to stay in a different cabin. Pulling up to park at my assigned cabin my headlights showed 3 deer!! Another times, I saw them from the balcony, several more deer. In fact, they seemed within an arm's reach. The balcony was clean with a covered table, hot tub and a means to charcoal meats. The grill utensils hung along the guard rails. Once inside, it appeared very clean. Every possible amenity was available (except robes or q-tips). Fireplace, cut wood, lighter, microwave, fold out couch, mini fridge, window unit, coffee maker, pots, pans, dishes, table and 2 chairs, tv, wifi, ceiling fan, towels (request extra if using the hot tub), shampoo, conditioner and body soap. Of course, a large cozy bed! The hot tub is small. My best guess would be that they can accommodate 4 small bodies max. Great jets and very hot water! The showers are so clean and sparkly! The shampoo, conditioner and body soap hang on the wall. All have a very mild scent. It was a perfect get away for me.

We went right at dusk, but I think if it had been truly dark, we could have seen the resort from miles away. ALL. THE. LIGHTS. (And, other decorations.) We were surprised by the amount of holiday cheer that was put up. Lots of inflatables (some quite unique). If you're in the area, I would certainly check it out. There's a donation box at the end if you're impressed.

There were homemade scones and cinnamon rolls served with eggs, bacon or sausage and they also had little parfaits. I had to have everything because it smells so delicious! Totally worth it to stretch my waistline. Joana mentioned they plan to open a bed and breakfast in France! With the wonderful couple hosting, you know I'll be there!

Killer breakfast in the morning with plenty of food. Fruit was the best and so fresh and delicious. Pastries were equally as fresh. The presentation and vibe of the dining area was nicely done. Breakfast order was cooked as requested and yummy. I am sorry we were able to spend more time, not only in the area, but at The Victoria. It takes a special couple to own and manage a B and B and Michael and Joana have it mastered to a fine art!

Needless to say, this experience did NOT start off well.

Like a lingering ghost, the smells wafted about and permeated every cubic inch of that room, even disturbing my sleep. At least the shower was excellent with tremendous water pressure.

I stay in Hampton Inns all the time and this was sadly not up to the usual Hampton Inn standards…read more Understanding there are not a lot of options in Miami Oklahoma, if time had allowed I would have stayed closer to Grand Lake, but could not. When we first arrived, it was obvious the roman shade curtain covering the window was broken in the "down" position, over the air conditioning unit (which blew constantly) because the bottom of it was at a slant. We tried to fix it, but could not. There was heavy condensation build up on the window behind the curtain, so thick, you couldn't see outside. The humidity in the room was so bad, even the carpet was damp. The moisture build up on the window was still there when we left. I presume if mold wasn't already growing, it soon will be. The tub/shower has a "floating floor (which another reviewer warns about) and the drain struggled to eliminate the water so it pooled up my feet while showering. The floating floor of the shower makes loud creaking noises as well. There was a very hard, straight back chair in the corner of the room (like you'd have in a dining room), which again, is not on par with the normal furnishings of a Hampton Inn. I know they usually have a good, complimentary breakfast, but I honestly couldn't wait to get out of the place, so we ate somewhere else and vowed never to stay there again. Sorry Hampton Inn.
