The food is very good, the service was great. Nice view, casual dining. If I am in the area again, will definitely return.

I can't comment on the motel as we were only passing through, but the restaurant was fantastic. The view of the river was superb and the food was great. It's kind of quaint but not in the corny sense, They offer a nice menu, probably a bit overpriced as is so with so many places in the boondocks but, boy, was it worth it. The service was pleasant as were the surroundings. All in all, nice people turning out a nice meal. They have a small gift shop and displays of items from the past like the old Heidelberg beer bottles that were a trip down memory lane for me. Be sure to try their salmon cheddar cheese soup. You won't find better.

We popped in for a bite to eat and thoroughly enjoyed it. Decor is rustic, but clean and not over the top. Pleasant view of garden area outside and the river, great service, and the biggest surprise of all - excellent food! The entres were in the $20 range so we got $10 sandwiches instead, which came with soup, fries or a salad (and a really tasty pickle). The soup was unusual and tasty, the BLT better than we could make at home, and my Ruben well made and not soggy at all (my pet peeve). Much, much better food than anticipated for a joint out in the woods, and cheaper and far less pretentious than Whistling Jacks (and closer to town).

We stopped in at the Drift Inn in Naches. What a joke!!! The drive to Trout Lodge is well worth it! You have our business!

Stopped in for dinner after going to Mt. Rainier for the day. The food was excellent and we had great service. Be sure and save room for one of their homemade desserts. You won't be disappointed..
