just spent three nights at the Bear River Casino. Excellent experience. I was greeted at the door by the front desk who had several people in front of me big smile on her face said, I will be with you in a few minutes'. Check in time was 4 pm l arrived at 2:00 pm and was in my room by 2:12 PM. Not that it's a huge thing, but they also gave me a couple of bottles of water which is nice when you first arrive some place. Every employee I encountered was happy, smiling, helpful and nice. The rooms are spacious with beautiful big bathrooms a very comfortable king-size bed and spotlessly clean. In fact the entire property is spotlessly clean and smoke free as far as l can tell. Even in the casino! The hotel has spectacular views of the Ferndale Valley at the price point I was on the backside of the hotel which I would Expect because the rate was so much better than any clean and smoke free as far as l can tell. Even in the casino! The hotel has spectacular views of the Ferndale Valley at the price point I was on the backside of the hotel which I would Expect because the rate was so much better than any place else in the area. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to anyone. I would rate this like a Choice Hotel Cambria line. And if you have time, take a quick trip to Loleta and grab some ice cream at Jersey scoops. Fantastic!

Cheap but that's about it
The room is really basic. They also tack on an additional $75 room deposit charge before you can get your room. The casino is small and not a wide variety of games. The beds are mid and there is nothing else around.

Great facility but cleanliness wasn’t a top priority. Lots of dried soap on shower knob and glass in shower hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. Water spots and soap scum. Food was great but server for dinner was horrible. No water refill. She came and all but threw our plates at us. We were at the bottom of her list of priorities. Breakfast service was excellent. Casino people were very helpful.
