Skamania Lodge

Skamania Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"This is a nice place in a beautiful location. If you're going to visit the Gorge, this is the nicest hotel around. They have some cool activities nearby and it's close enough for an easy drive out to the national forest."

Lightwell Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel had a modern vintage feel that made the experience really nice. We were initially put in a Classic King room, but unfortunately, it had a strong unpleasant smell. We brought it up with the front desk, and they were very accommodating and helped us with a lovely room upgrade. The only other downside was parking, only paid street parking is available - however it isn’t too expensive and it’s free after 6pm-8am. We were only there for one night, so we didn’t get a chance to check out the spa downstairs, but hopefully next time. We enjoyed our stay overall. We definitely recommend this hotel and stay here again."

8/10 Good
"This is a good place to stay. What keeps it from being great is it could use some updating- beds were just okay, soaking rooms could use a deep clean and dusting. Lack of food at the resort is other reason. Pros are the large hot tub with cold plunge (a cracked window would be great because it’s pretty humid in room). The area is so beautiful too- lots of outdoor hiking available nearby."
