Hotels near McDowell Dam Nature Park

"Very nice place to stay"

"Yes"

"The hotel was not bad, but was also quite a bit dingy-er than we expected. The room was fine, clean etc, just a bit outdated. When we walked in, the desk staff and I couldn't even hear each other because guests in the lounge were drinking and being so loud that we couldn't hear 4 feet from each other. I also heard LOUD music and lots of talking and asked if there was a wedding reception tonight and he says, "no.... thats the swimming pool". We then got settled and headed down to the pool with our kids, the main purpose of our fun trip to swim and have a hotel stay, and the pool was absolutely packed, minimum of 40 kids, just absolute chaos. No open chairs or places for parents to sit, etc. We made it work, found a corner of the pool to keep the kids in, because we were afraid if they left our general area we wouldn't be able to find them in the sea of other kids, all older than ours and rough housing with each other. Next morning we had continental breakfast which was very good, staff did a great job keeping everything stocked, a challenge with the many families there that night I'm sure. We then tried to swim one more time before check out but they had the pool closed, which was frustrating because as I said, that was the main purpose of turning what is normally a day trip to Bismarck into a hotel stay to swim. "

"Clean room and building, parking lot had some trash. Room was small but very clean and the property was well kept up"

"The staff in the evening are very friendly and helpful. Our room was excellent. The kitchen was delightful. My grandma passed away, so I was able to have family over to visit."

"I've looked at staying at this hotel quite a bit, but every time I've looked at where to stay in Bismarck, I am turned off because this hotel NEVER has "PO at when you stay." This weekend, they did, so I booked. Big mistake! The biggest issue was I was seriously concerned for our safety. They put us, myself and 2 teen daughters, on the ground floor, facing the back of the building. We had to put a chair against the curtains to keep them closed. The bathroom lighting was terrible. There were only 2 bath towels in a double queen room. There were exposed pipes for the toilet, terrible time figuring how to turn on the shower, and strange sounds in the bathroom sink pipes. The biggest issue, by far though, was feeling extremely uncomfortable being on the ground floor with 2 teen daughters. "

"There wasn’t a lot of parking, I was told that I should have come back earlier when visiting family. It was late, but a backhoe taking up 4 spots isn’t really ideal. The guy that checked me in was super nice and helpful. "

"Place is a disaster. I would not call this a hotel. It needs to be shut down. I was booked for two days. Spent one night and left the next morning. Front desk person said she knew and didn’t know how to a refund. "

"Breakfast was excellent. Parking was not te best. I had no place to park. I had to park next door. Very upset there was no pool working."
