The River Rock Lodge is a small hotel located in the meadow Village section of big sky. You are still 10 minutes from skiing but it has great access to the other attractions in the area. The rooms were lovely and the staff was friendly. They had an unadvertised breakfast buffet with coffee, bagels, and cereal which was a nice... More

We stayed at River Rock Lodge when we were forced to change plans in the aftermath of the East Coast snow storm in February. We had to find a place at the last minute and were basically stranded with a lot of luggage and no immediate access to transport. We were also a bit distressed because it impacted the remainder...

We stayed at River Rick based on another hotel's recommendation. I'm so glad we did. There is a lovely woman who works there who gave us advice on where to eat, how to get around, and how to acclimate to the high altitude, rooms are spacious and clean with comfortable beds. The hotel is well situated in the meadow with... More

We booked two rooms for 2 nights and were there at the end of their season, so very, very quiet. It is a one hour drive to Yellowstone Park, where we spent the day. Rooms are big, bathrooms are not and stingy on shampoo etc.. Bathtub is very small, so forget a nice long soaking on a cool night. Breakfast... More

Comfortable spacious rooms, clean, outstanding location to the heart of big sky, quiet, friendly staff... It's really hard to go wrong with this place. I did ask for an upstairs room (2nd floor---only 2 floors) due to a previous posters complaint about people walking above them. The very nice lady who checked me in told me that they do their...

The River Rick Lodge is located in what is basically a strip mall like setting in the Meadows Village, about eight miles below the main Mountain Village at Big Sky. We had not realized this when we book and were quite disappointed when we arrived. Our room was fine, though our view was primarily of parking lots and roadways, with... More

As another review stated if your on the first floor you can hear every step that the people in the room above you take. We were supposed to stay here 2 nights. But after one sleepless night due to the noise from the people walking above us I tried to get moved to the 2nd floor. No rooms were available... More

This lodge is well located about an hour from Yellowstone. Great bike riding trails along the river, cool mountain ski resort nearby. Rooms are spacious and clean and nice hot tub outside. We loved the town and the cafes and bars in walking distance. We rented mountain bikes and had a great ride. Waterfall nearby and beautiful log cabin church.
