Bass Pro Shops Angler's Lodge
Staff was nice, hotel was horrible, breakfast was not great either. Felt more like a motel 6. Very old and dingy feeling. The pictures on the website definitely did not match what it looks like in person. For how expensive it is I was expecting something nicer. Won’t stay again.
