Doc's Lodge Die perfekte Sägezahnflucht

John and his family were exactly the type of guests that we like the most. People that enjoy nature and recreating outside. Very nice family that is always welcome at Doc's Lodge.

Loved hosting John and his dad, they were perfect guests! Of course John is always welcome to stay again.

Ben, Eliza and family were fabulous guests. You are always welcome back!

We really enjoyed having Doug and his family over. We would definitely host him again.

Loved hosting Stephen and Jess, we wished every guest was as respectful as those two. They are always welcome at Doc's Lodge!

Loved hosting Sarah and her husband, they were really fun to have and we enjoyed having them stay

Having Chuck and his family was so much fun, we really enjoyed seeing the kids enjoying the front yard and fishing. They are always welcome back at Doc's Lodge!

I was sorry to see we received less than a five star review from you. You mentioned the accommodations were cramped because the upstairs wasn't available. The upstairs has never been available and if it was the accommodations like any others would be considerably more expensive. Clearly in the home's information it states that the upstairs isn't available and lists the unit as a 2 BED 1 BATH facility. Perhaps the one writing the review was not the one booking the property and there were other expectations. When we did the walk through with you we told you we wished to make this a five star stay and please let us know if something isn't right or we can offer area information. We also explained we can't add a bathroom or bedroom besides what is there and that is exactly how the rental is advertised. Things like something broken or something the housekeeper neglected we can remedy, not add a bedroom. We often wonder why a group of 5-7 adults would rent a two bedroom and be upset for lack of room. We're sorry the live music in town bothered you. It also bothers us too. We have been active in working with the city leaders to find a balance between the town's economy with all the art and music Stanley has and peaceful enjoyment. Stanley is a small town. and rest assured there is nowhere else in town where you would have had it any quieter during the music events that happen several times a summer. We will share the fact that the music distracted you from your vacation with the city leaders and continue to hope for the balance of having a town where people can enjoy music events vs. no activity.

You're absolutely welcome and please come visit again! Yes, the fireplace is closed during the summer months as it will literally heat you out of the house, it just isn't meant for little fires. Come visit in the winter and you can totally enjoy it then! Normally we do not open the laundry to guests but since you were staying a week we made an exception and as we explained before we opened the laundry, the dryer was being revented, and we do hang our laundry outside in the sun to sanitize and have it smell fresh and clean. I would imagine being from New Jersey that Stanley would seem off grid but I do assure everyone that we have all the creature comforts of home including Wifi and Direct TV. We were a little bummed that there was smoking at the property since it is a non smoking property; but Lisa and Joey left the house spotless and I definitely appreciated that!

Carrie, Josh and their sons were great guests! Loved having them at Doc's Lodge. Thank you so much for the input on the laundry room and we have decided to open the laundry up for select guests like yourselves.

Christina and family are wonderful to have stay in your home. They are very respectful, communicate quickly and are friendly. I would definitely welcome them back anytime!

Margaret and Timothy were great guests and we enjoy having guests like them. They did a perfect job cleaning up, taking care of trash and recyclables - I will definitely write down instructions for future guests on what to do with trash and recyclables. Timothy and Margaret are welcome back anytime!

Darlene was just nasty from the beginning. She was rude and obviously unhappy to be in Stanley, Idaho. "We had to be careful of bad patio, broken windows" Not sure what Darlene means about a bad patio, none of the windows are broken, we did, however, point out a crack in a window that was done by a previous guest during her walkthrough. Darlene was also confused by the front door, which is an Anderson Door that she seemed to have a hard time operating. Also, yes, you have to do your dishes and may not leave the house full of dirty dishes. And yes, there is not a dishwasher and neither do we advertise that there is one. Again, it looks like Darlene was having some confusion over the water facet, as we have an on demand water heater and always have hot water. She contacted us and we instructed her to turn the facet the other direction - that worked. Direct TV - we subscribe to 151 channels and we offered Darlene to use the Firestick to access even more channels (she refused) and then we even sent her information on the Fish Hatchery and Museum that have additional programs for kids to try to help her find activities for her grand daughter. Our cleaners also want to know if anything was missing or needed to be fixed. Darlene did not share with us any problems, we would have been more than happy to take care of any issues. In the listing we have a queen bed, a full/twin bunk bed and a full trundle. We do sleep 7, the trundle is not a twin it is a full size.

Thank you Cindy for your feedback. With the addition currently being added on to the property there will shortly be a large table for family dining or adventure planning. The upstairs will have a media/living room with additional sleeping. There are 5 chairs around the bar currently for eating and 2 additional chairs that seat around the log table. The bedrooms do have additional shelving and storage in the closets for clothing.

Kate and her family were wonderful. They will always be welcome here!

Mary and Charlie were perfect guests, they are always welcome back!

Joy and her family were great guests and left our home in perfect shape. I would definitely invite them back up to Stanley in the Spring, Fall or Winter when they can use the wood stove. In July with the 80+ degree weather the wood stove just isn't a great idea.
