I had an absolutely wonderful stay here and the employees were some of the most welcoming and friendly people I have ever met! The room was nice and clean with a beautiful view. The saloon downstairs had some great food and was a great time meeting some local residents. I cannot emphasize how great Sara, Denise, and Bae were. They went above and beyond to help me when I ran into some issues at the end of my trip. They were so great, that by the end of my first night there, I extended my stay another few days!

The Brown Bear Saloon is a very unique property and although the rooms are very basic (this is reflected in the price) the staff are wonderful, helpful, friendly and the food is good. We enjoyed our stay there.

The Brown Bear Saloon and Hotel was clean, comfortable, and cute. The staff were super friendly and we enjoyed chatting with other guests as we ate in the bar downstairs. Nice little park across the road from the hotel. This place is not fancy or luxurious, but it has everything you need for a safe and comfortable overnight stay.
