Lake Matheson Motel surprised me with its charm. The two-bedroom apartment fit our family perfectly, featuring a lovely stream out front and a clean, well-appointed interior. The hosts made late check-out a breeze, which was greatly appreciated. The location near the main street meant we could easily explore the local dining options. However, the bathroom could use maintenance. the shower flooded as there were no drains outside the cubicle. Also, the lighting in the bathroom was a bit too intense for my liking. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this place for its comfort and friendliness.

The room felt stale. the fan was underwhelming for the heat!!! A chair had a screw poking through the fabric, and it just seemed to lack proper maintenance overall. Misleading proximity to Lake Matheson!!!

The king studio we stayed in was super cozy, and we loved that the heater was on when we arrived—it really made our evening! There are some lovely spots to sip tea and enjoy the quiet in the garden area, or you can lounge by the outdoor seating. A minor downside was the limited kitchen utensils, but it didn’t really put a damper on our stay. 😊

A Cozy Haven Despite the Rain
Despite the downpour, we felt welcomed with warm service. Our King Studio was not only sleek and clean but boasted a well-equipped kitchenette that made cooking easy. Don’t miss the stunning glacier view! Pro tip, book your meals in advance, especially during bad weather.
