We stayed here two nights and will defeinitely return. The owners are very nice poeple and are life-long Trout Lake Valley residents who own a ranch nearby (and raise buffalo). It's a great deal, and a good base for nearby hiking, cross country skiing, and other outdoor activities, or for people who just want to relax in the beauty of the area, or who are passing through on their way to the mountains or the Gorge. The sweet potato waffles, as mentioned here by others, are great too.

Lots of nice extra touches you'd expect in a B&B instead of a motel - fresh flower boxes, nice soaps, hammock by the creek, fresh wild huckleberries on the waffles.

This was my first trip out west visiting family. My brother and I were traveling from North Bend OR to Mount St. Helen's when we needed a place to stay. My brother contacted information for Trout Lake Washington and asked if they could give us the number for any hotel in the area. They gave us the number for the Trout Lake hotel and gave us directions. We were not sure what to expect but we were pleasantly suprised. The owners thought of everything. Our room was so beautiful and clean, not to mention the Teddy Bears and mint's on the beds, and a rubber duckie in the shower. The lobby was inviting and the dining area very clean and welcoming. There was a lot of thought that went in to making anyone's stay at the Trout Lake Hotel worth coming back to. I live in Sanford Maine but I will be back.

This motel is a quiet gem in Trout Lake. Everything about it says "welcome", from the cozy lobby to the friendly touches by the owners. Don't go by their Web page, because there's more the place like a great breakfast, satellite TV and a hot tub. Also, it's VERY dog friendly. In fact, they had a nice dog bed in the room. Breakfast when we stayed was sweet potato waffles, along with the usual continental breakfast stuff.

We'll definitely be back.
