We have a 7 yo active boy and an 11 yo child with multiple physical and cognitive special needs. We had a GREAT time here... So good we re-routed our travel plans to and from San Juan Islands to come back on the way home. Accommodations were very kid friendly and fun for all. Gorgeous pool. 4'6" at deep end = safe pool time. Twin and queen beds in separate rooms means everyone sleeps well. Really wonderful staff. Immaculate. And I mean immaculate. This is our new "secret getaway". Thank you for an amazing vacation experience.
I have stayed several times at the Canyo River Lodge on the Yakima River. Every time I am reminded of how beautiful the Yakima River canyon is and how easy a drive it is from Seattle. The lodge itself is a world class facility right on the river. The suites are lovely, the staff is excellent, and the restaurant has wonderful food. In addition there is one of the finest fly shops at the lodge that I have ever been in. They have guides for fishing, sporting clays, and hunting if you need help enjoying the available sporting activities. I highly recommend the Canyon River Lodge for a short romantic getaway or a hardcore outdoor adventure.

Good for beginner fly fisher-people.
Staff was helpful and nice. The location is noisy due to the highway and trains. Beautiful in a rugged kind of way.
Excellent lodgings. River raging behind us n wonderful view of fire pit, pool, spa n river.
Condo suites make this a home away from home.
Only thing that would've made things perfect is if the AC hadn't been broken. And check out took some time waiting for front desk to get off phone.
Wish someone had told us the Billiard room would be closed w the office hours. Went to play some after an excellent dinner next door. 😢 Also looked for Hose to spray feet off after venturing down to river as I didn't want to drag sand into room.
Rooms n beds are amazing.
No one there to check us in. Lodge closed. No restaurant. Coffee shop next door closed in the morning. Nice place, comfortable and clean but weird! Had to drive 20 minutes to Ellensburg to eat. Definitely for those who are bringing their own food and supplies. Oh, and there are trains that pass by every hour or so all day and night.
The lodge was gorgeous, quiet with beautiful views. The pool wax perfect shallow and warm but refreshing. Our room was terrific, comfy bed and pillows. Great kitchen and outstanding views of the river and hills.
We had a lovely room with full kitchen, 1&1/2 bath and two bedrooms. It was clean, sunny and quiet, except for the train's moving through the valley throughout the day and night. I sleep with earplugs so didn't both me but partner was woken up a lot.
There is no restaurant services during the week at this time of year. However, Ellensburg with lots of good eats is relatively close by.
The only other limitation I saw was the main rooms (reception, living room, game room, etc. was closed after 5 pm.

Nice lodge by the river. Dog friendly.
The lodge was nice. It is sparcely furnished. Four people and three chairs. Tiny coffee maker. Restaurant not yet open. Nearest good food 14 miles away.
This place is really more of a vacation rental. My husband and I are thinking out coming back with his 11year old son next time. There was a separate room with 2 twin beds. Would have been great for a family adventure. The fly shop and restaurant next door was awesome, although we wish that we would have brought more essentials. They don't even sell a bottle of water or snacks in the fly shop. The restaurant/coffee bar was closed on Monday so lucky we had left-overs from the night before that we ate before our guided fly fishing day.

Tolle Ferienwohnung am Yakima River
Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung mit viel Platz und toller Ausstattung. Das Restaurant ist leider nur Do - So geöffnet, es gibt keinen Zimmerservice und auch keinen Minimart o.ä.. D.h. für jede Kleinigkeit muss man mindestens 2*30 min in die nächste Stadt (Yakima) fahren.
I needed to find a place for three of my friends and I to get together after (hard to admit) 21 years. We wanted to sit by a pool and catch up on everything. I was concerned that the resturant wasn't open and town was 20 minutes away but the kitchen was well stocked and we brought everything we needed to cook our meals.
It is a hunting and fishing lodge and lots of men were launching their fly fishing boats. The fly fishing shop, Red's, was vey busy. We didn't feel out of place. It is a small lodge with 10 suits and a beautiful common area, pool, hot tub and beautiful view.
We spent the morning by the pool and afternoon floating down the river. It is fast flowing but calm and felt wonderful in the 90+ weather. Would highly recommend it.
The staff treated us like we were guests in their home, taking us to our room, showing us around and bring us bags of ice for our margarita 's.
I can't wait to return for more relaxation. I wouldn't change a thing.
Enjoyable & relaxing. Walk out the door to the river. Pool was nice in a nice setting.

When I checked in it was all cool. The pool looked clean, the view was amazing! Room is nice but you are paying for location. The office closes at 5. The main lodge closes as well which I didn't understand. You have to let them know you want maid service. We ran out of towels & toilet paper. My friends rented the tents and they ran out of toilet paper as well. I shared my concerns with management and they did listen.
Our purpose in going to Canyon River Lodge was to fish the Yakima River. Excellent two day stay at the hotel which is connected to Reds Fly Shop. Fishing was fabulous.only disappointment was that the Grill and Bar was not open.
The room was very nice and spacious (and clean). Fireplace was a plus. the only negative was that the interior facilities were closed to guests after 5:00. so, the nice pool table was unavailable in the evenings.

Unexpected
The hote/condol was nice..the staff was excellent. The price was to high for unkept grounds and no cutrains on the glass door in living room. The downfall to the stay was the band/concert in.the lodge conected to our room late at night,it was so loud we couldn't sleep.
This is our sixth time staying here within the last 4-months. We absolutely love it here. Spacious, clean rooms with amazing views and privacy. Great customer service.
We stayed at the Canyon River Ranch while celebrating a family birthday. It was so beautiful and relaxing. Our daughter who is three, loved swimming in the heated pool and spa. We will be back again!
The hotel was nice, great pool, the only problem was the lack of food or restaurant facilities and with no even a mini bar it was a surprise, especially considering the overall level of the facility.
