My husband and I stayed during March 2007 - I thought the brochure I received in the mail really makes this place look better that it actually is ... we did, however, enjoy our stay. If you are going ... request a room looking out towards downtown ... the view of down town is great ... the location of the hotel was the most positive of all. It is ...

misleading

The outside of the Bearskin logdge looks great, the inside is small, musty and misleading. Giving the hotel a rating of one star is too much!
The continetal breakfast was like gladiator, the strongest and first to arrive eats, don't waste your time or money on this hotel.

Much better than I expected
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/02/08
I made the reservation here before reading reviews. I dreaded arriving there and expected the worst. I was pleasantly surprised. The king room with jacuzzi,fireplace and balcony was very nice. It was clean and warm when we arrived. The view was not looking into another hotel but into an area of trees and the river was very high and the only noise ...

Stay somewhere else
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/28/07
Their site is difficult to work through, sluggish.
By the time you add fees and tax, you'll spend quite a bit.
The staff is sluggish, too, blank stares, then no real response besides 'Don't know.'
The room was just OK, but don't pay extra for the 'river' view -- just a drainage ditch that looks onto another ...

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/11/07
My husband and I stayed at the bearskin four years ago and were very impressed and couldn't wait to go back there. My how things have changed....the girl at the check in desk wasn't very pleasant...when we got to our room the shams on the king size pillows were crusted with something and we immediately threw them off our bed. The ...

Will probably stay again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/01/07
Yes the pool,lazy river,lobby,elavator are smaller than they appear online, yes your room either overlooks another hotel or the front parking lot. Yes the staff are young and not very talkative. But the rooms and hotel are very clean, it's off the parkway but you still get a little traffic noise. You are close to some really nice restaurants. ...

Don't go by brochure
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/29/07
If you are reading this, than you are doing your research and won't be too disappointed. Pool and lazy river are quite a bit smaller than you can imagine. Not near what it looks like in the brochure. There is only one elevator, but we never had to wait long. The people at the desk were helpfull and polite, not very energetic. Room was very ...
I liked the cleanliness of the rooms and the size of the rooms. The staff was friendly and I liked that you could make waffles and eat a breakfast not just coffee and donuts. The view was not good but we were in town so it was better than expected. The only thing I did not like was that there was only 1 small elevator. I would come back.
