The owner was very kind, especially since I showed up later than expected. I would definitely recommend this place. Rooms are super clean and have a cool log cabin feel to them!

Phenomenal place. Little oasis in southern Saskatchewan. Clean, comfortable, spacious and well equipped rooms. I would equate it at least to a best western plus. Its probably better.

This was probably the best place we could have stayed in the region for our visit to Grasslands National Park. The rates were cheap and the rooms were clean yet also had a rustic feel to them. The owner is also quite friendly.

Great value for your money. You can’t beat this price! Spacious, clean room (we had a room with just one bed) Highly recommend. Friendly, helpful, amazing staff! Jason, the owner goes above and beyond. Clean, new, very well kept motel. Excellent coffee shops and restaurants on Centre street (within walking distance) Try the brisket sandwich and coffee at the Meeting Grounds Coffee house on Centre Street. You won’t be disappointed! The friendly people and great service in this town really made our stay wonderful. If you stay here, you will be well taken care of. THANK YOU Shaunavon and the Bear’s Den Lodge in particular!!! Will be back!

Quiet and clean place. It's near a gas station. We went 2 times during our road trip QC-BC (one on our way to BC, and one coming back). We had a great experience both times. We arrived late and the owner was very acccomodative. We recommend.

You can tell that the owners (I believe his name was Jason) put a lot of effort into keeping the rooms clean and providing all the amenities for a comfortable stay. We were supposed to stay at another hotel nearby, but we booked the wrong day by accident. Thankfully Jason had two rooms available on short notice. It’s not a luxury motel, but it’s clean, quiet, and comfortable.
