Reviews for Glenogle Mountain Lodge and Spa in Golden, BC
The host is absolutely amazing. She makes you feel like you are in a home away from home. The lodges decorations are... stunning. The rooms are so peaceful and quiet. Definitely a place to stay and you are located just a couple minutes from thedowntown hub. Much safer area with peace and quiet. Read more
The rooms were very clean. We loved our time here. Doris is an amazing cook and hostess. Her husband is wonderful as well. We... were guests in their home. If you want to get back to basics and get into nature this is a perfect spot. Do you remember whenpeople used to sit and talk to each other without the distractions of the Internet, television and gaming?? You can find thiswhen you stay here. Doris cooked us a fabulous meal we enjoyed our meal and drinks out on the their deck. Doris let me picktheir raspberries that were in the yard. My mom who has passed away and I used to always pick berries together. I had theopportunity to relive a cherished memory of my Mom surrounded by the beautiful mountains and wonderful fresh air. You aresurrounded by mother nature?s beauty. You can unplug from the busyness and noice of the Internet and TV and plug in to thepeople around you. I would highly recommend you come and stay here whenever you are in Golden, BC. We will definitely be back.Until then Doris taking care of yourself and your family. Read more
Amazing and friendly service, close to our friends wedding location. Thank you for the warm hug filled welcome and memorable... hospitality. Read more
Very friendly lady who owns the lodge. I have stayed here a couple times. It is a bit off the highway, but worth the drive to... get more into nature. The only thing that I would suggest is having a fan in the rooms. Read more
Quietest lodging we?ve ever stayed at! Glenogle is a ten minute drive from Golden up a mountain and is owned by a lovely German... couple who are friendly and hard working. Our room and bathroom were pristinely clean, the sheets soft and the beds werecomfortable. Doris, the proprietress, dries the sheets in the sun. In addition to rooms at the lodge, there are also a fewcabins available?all with stunning views of the mountains. Our twin boys loved playing foosball and air hockey in the largegames room. Glenogle is a solid choice if you?re searching for solitude in the mountains. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Read more
Wow, what can I say to do this place justice? The lovely German couple that run this little gem are some of the most wonderful... folks I've ever met. When we arrived, we were greeted almost like family! The cabin we rented for 2 nights was well appointedand immaculate. The beds are a tad smallish (pretty standard for a cabin, I suppose), but comfortable. The bathroom was cleanand well laid out, and the water pressure is good. The kitchenette has everything you'd need for an extended stay. The wholeplace fit 4 very comfortably, and there could potentially be room for more. The chalet part of the place (separate from thecabins) features a gorgeous dining area where (upon request) the couple will make a simply marvellous and elaborate breakfast. Some of the dishes are quite likely either family secrets or historical German recipes, and we will be trying our hand atreplicating some of them when we're back home. The hot tub was shut down for the summer season due to unscrupulous folksabusing it, so I didn't deduct any marks for that. One of the neighbours to the property were running their smoker for a fewhours in the afternoon, exacerbating the smoke front the regional fires, but again no deductions because it was short-lived andout of the proprietor's control. Over our short stay we really enjoyed the property, and the folks running it. We willabsolutely stay in touch, not only to enjoy their hospitality once again, but because we feel like family now! I give thisplace an 11 out of 10! Read more
The Glenogle Mountain Lodge is an absolutely beautiful property, that?s tucked away in the mountains near Golden, BC. We called... later in the evening, and our reservation was extremely last second, but Doris accommodated us nonetheless and was extremelypolite, kind and helpful to make us feel at home on her beautiful property. The rooms are nice, clean and spacious, and withthe king size options it makes it a very comfortable stay. I highly recommend the Glenogle Mountain Lodge to anyone who?spassing through Golden/staying for a longer period of time, or who?s looking for a more interesting and unique option versusthat of a traditional motel/hotel (or both!) Thanks again Doris! Read more
I agree with what everyone else is saying here, Doris and her husband are lovely people. However what the rest of these reviews... fail to mention is how insanely overpriced it is to stay here. The accomodation is advertised as a ?resort and spa? which couldnot be further from what it actually is. It is essentially a b&b at their home except you have to pay more for the breakfast. Wepaid over $700 for two nights for a room in the basement, that was not clean, that had a ?garden view? (which I?m sure once waslovely but has not been maintained and is overrun by weeds), and we didn?t even get a key to lock the room when we were out. Weare a young family and this vacation was a big deal for us, and instead of remembering the fun things we did on vacation, all Ican think about is how much money we wasted here and where we really could have used it instead. I?m sad and disappointed. Read more
