Skamania Lodge

A fairly mellow lodged tucked away near the Columbia river gorge. Some nice activities, such as axe throwing and zip lining (7 zips), and a couple of restaurants.

The food & views are fairly nicely. Between their venue rental & conference rooms, a great place for some company getaways or meetings for sure.

This room was purchased for us as a Christmas gift. The resort atmosphere itself was quite nice. Our room was pretty standard with a king bed, a couch and fireplace. We had as nice a view of the river as you could expect from a first floor room. However, when I received a copy of the bill when we checked out I was agasp. I had expected the bill based on the room we had to be about $200 considering this was a resort. I was amazed to find out the cost of the room to be $390. I would have expected much more than a standard room particularly on the bottom floor and for that price. It was explained to me that maybe because we had a service dog we weren't provided one of the nicer rooms on the upper floors. If that were the case the purchaser should have been told. In addition I looked up the costs for those rooms in the month of May they averaged much closer to the $200 to $250s. They were not willing to make an adjustment. I would suggest you ask the right questions before booking a room there. On the other hand the wait staff in the restaurant were great!

Wonderful way to spend Mother's Day weekend. Wish there was a microwave in the rooms. Restaurant staff was outstanding. Dinner menu didn't change for the 2 days there. Brunch buffet is back! Got spa treatments- a must do: mud wrap! Trails well maintained. Lots to do for families!

Definitely big “lodge in the mountains” vibes here, and overall my stay was very comfortable. I was there for work and the big conference room was kept a little chilly (thermostat set to 67°), and I found it kind of odd that the rooms myself and my peers were put in had two full sized beds instead of two queen beds, but that wasn’t a big deal for me (might be for taller folks though!). The on site activities (axe throwing, hiking) were fun too.
