The pool, playground and horseshoes were a benefit for our stay. We had children and these kept them busy and happy.

Beautiful area, well kept Rooms. Private, easy access, accommodations.
Julie, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice clean room, comfy bed, good shower, nice pool & swings. Pillows were hard. Grounds were more rustic than the website photos. River was far away. It was not a “patio room,” just a small bench by the parking space. Not “mountain view,” just grass and trees. Restaurant was closed. But good price and ok location. Nice owner.
Diane, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We loved the place and very easy check in and out
Todd, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Unfortunately, we were unaware that the restaurant would not open till Wednesday and was not prepared for that. We brought our dog, so the restaurant would have been beneficial for our stay. Since he go where we go. There is no access to the creek/river. Steep hill. For our vk that was not a wise choice for us staying at HT

All went well
Dorothy, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Beds were crazy noisy - husband lifted mattress and the mattress sits in 1/8-1/4 inch paneling/ply wood that is screwed to framing. Owner said no one ever complained about it - Our entire room woke every time someone moved in the bed so we all slept horrible. There was some mold you could see in the windows etc, pretty outdated. But it served the purpose we needed it for.
Joy, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Hungry Trout is an amazing stay with beautiful views, good service, convenient locations to activities and reasonable price. Would love to stay again

Ski trip

Awesome place to stay. Our second year staying there and will stay again next year.
Caitlin, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Hungry Trout Resort is definitely overrated. There’s no microwave in the room, no lunch service available, and WiFi connectivity is poor – expect frequent drops. The room lamps didn’t work properly, making the stay inconvenient. Despite being advertised as a resort, it feels more like an average motel that shouldn’t cost more than $70–$75 per night. The furniture is outdated, and yes, you might even spot spider webs in the room corners. The photos online are misleading – while it promises a mountain view, 50% of it is blocked by trees, so don’t expect a clear scenic experience.

A great place to stay.

The staff were very helpful. The motel was close to the ski resort. This accommodation was excellent value for the money.

Our favorite place to stay when we go to the area, no matter what time of year!
Kelli, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Stayed two nights while on a May 7-9 ADKS fishing trip. Check in was super easy, room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay and I enjoyed my stay there. Beds were clean and comfortable, bathroom was spacious, unlike some other hotels, and I loved the shower that had plenty of hot water after a cold, rainy day on the river. While there was no microwave in my room there is one available in the office, which I used a couple of times. I would and will definitely stay at the Hungry Trout again.
