8/10 Very good

Room was clean. Beds where dated. Room too small for two doubles.
Bruce, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I definitely stay again!

The room was nice and great to have our own bathroom as there was three of us. Very comfortable and good to have air conditioning since it was hot for October. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to make ourselves at home. Lauran was immediately responsive for my check in question. Thanks for the great stay.

10/10 Exceptional

This older home and its cultural interior connected with my roots in Kingfield when I worked as a forester for Dead River Timberlands in the mid-late 1960's. The wall art plus books on the Grateful Dead, you rock! I stayed here as my overnight for doing some off-trail photographic exploration in the Boundary Mountains the next day. i'll stay here again. Thanks
Not exactly my stay, but it supported my exploration the next day.

This place is a great place to stay with a friendly owner. He even played guitar for us and he is very good! My kids loved it here, we would come again!

Feels like home!

This was a great stop for a night on our way to Sugarloaf to ski. We booked last minute, but were given very clear check-in instructions. The room was comfortable, clean, and the extra amenities like the living room and breakfast supplies were an added bonus! We would absolutely stay again next time we’re up this way.

Great Ski Stay

A wonderfully quite place to stay. Our visit was to enjoy Sugarloaf and the Terrapins proximity to the mountain was great. We even extended our stay one more might with no hassle as weather closed the mountain one day.
George, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hostel was clean and very accessible. The kitchen was of great use, for those who like to cook on the road.
Jean Pierre, 1-night trip

I would highly recommend this place for anyone passing through! Host is friendly, helpful, kind; the space is very clean, calm, and quiet. Felt like I was right at home! Would definitely stay again if I’m back in the neighborhood.

Pleasant stay

Wonderful stay at this hostel. Easy access and straight forward communication on house rules. Quiet and comfortable. Make yourself at home. Nice array of breakfast food.
Luanna, 1-night trip

Last minute find, would definitely stay there again. I'm assuming due to a rain storm coming in, we had the place to ourselves! Matt was very welcoming and the house was very clean.

Very nicely taken care older stately home. There's a pool table in the living room, ukulele, guitar, and a small banjo. Very nicely decorated. Its cheaper than others, but a better quality of stay. I recommend it

Play was clean and well take care of. Very quiet and home like. Guest were respective of other guest. Check in directions very simple and precise.
Dana, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A really special experience - felt like being part of a community - even though we were only there one night, and the only ones there - felt like a Goldilocks experience where everything g was "just right" - everything you need to get comfortable and really feel at home. Be back as soon as we can'.
Joshua, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Location!

We loved the amount of space we had for our family. The communication was great and they were very helpful. The environment was an older home, but it was well kept. The beds were not the most comfortable and although it was clean overall, seeing mouse traps although understandable, always make me concerned there is a problem.
Jessica, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very cozy hostel in Kingfield which has a few private rooms as well as dorm areas on the third floor. Access to a full kitchen to prepare meals. Breakfast cereals available for the morning. Some minor communication challenges checking in as phone contacts kept getting terminated. However, eventually a connection was made. Private room that I reserved is spacious and very comfortable.
