McMenamins Kalama Harbor Lodge

Beautiful location, great staff, good dinner… the room was comfortable, quiet & charming& QUIET… wonderful view… Our two dogs were welcome ….. That review was over a week ago.., on our subsequent vacation further north on the coast I got food poisoning… we were SOO LUCKY to be able to get a last minute stay (2 nights) at the lodge… I spent the entire 2 days in bed… a wonderful comfortable bed, draperies drawn & the strong structure of the building allowed for calm and quiet… a strange review but the Lodge offered us a place for me to recover… Our first time at the lodge loved the lovely bar…this time the quiet that allowed me rest & no interruptions for our dogs

As always, we had a wonderful 3 night stay with the staff, dining-in the restaurant, outside & in our room, walking the grounds, shopping at Timber Market, visiting family in Woodland & Longview, etc.! The decor of McMenamin's is unique, enchanting and fun to experience! Kalama Harbor Lodge is our home-way-from-home when we are in SW Washington:-)

Set in a beautiful location along the Columbia river. Music scheduled several time a week and plenty of river walk to get your exercise. Several restaurants on campus and bars. Such a realxing place to stay.

Beautiful area and comforting vibe. We were greeted warmly and by name by the Front Desk. I did complete a pre-check in. Still, attention detail by staff noted and appreciated. Impressive considering how fast-paced a world we all live in. Our room took us back to a simpler time. Had a tv and nice patio as all the rooms do. Atmosphere is reminiscent of lodge or cabin (hence the name 😀). Dimly lit, but relaxing and we couldn't help but disconnect from the world. We purchased the Passport and are now hooked into getting all the stamps which will keep us on tour of McMenamin's properties for some time. Food was wonderful! Stephen hooked us up with breakfast. We had dinner and also visited the Cloud Lounge. The Cloud Lounge service was good. We asked for water and it was forgotten. I wouldn't wreck the place for this -- waiters were nice. We ventured out one day and went to the Marketplace just south and in walking distance. What a cute place! We had a once in a lifetime tasting experience at Battle Crest Distillery with Audrey. This is what we all miss in our day-to-day. Connection. Yes, I missed the soaking tub and maybe getting more channel choices on my tv. However, I got something I didn't know I missed or even needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will be back.

Everybody was wonderful I have to say what a beautiful sight I love the cabin feel and watching and hearing the ships outside in the middle of the night during the fogg

Very disappointed. Poor lighting, no closet (3 pegs on the wall), small sink - hard to function with, mushy bed. They put coffee mugs in the room, and you have to go to the restaurant to fill them. I couldn't get the heat up in the room. Boat blew horn at 3 a.m. 5 times. Restaurant is mostly spicy everything. Ordered plain hamburger and it was a hard, overcooked hockey puck - really bad. Had to drag table to other side of the room to be able to plug in and use laptop. Best in the area because it is the ONLY hotel in the area. Overpriced. They seem to be more interested in being creative than functional and user friendly.

The room was very comfortable and the view of the river from our balcony was great. The service provided by all of the staff members was exceptional!!! The food in the restaurant and lounge was good. We will be back in the future!

Room was clean, food amazing, staff outstanding , it was a very nice one night get away.

We came for the first Thursday BINGO and stayed the night. We filled out the stamps in our McMenamins Passports and got way cool coolers for our prize.
