Hotels near Deer Lodge

Victory Lanes has fantastic food and great fun! When we were sent from the hotel to the bowling alley we were a bit hesitant at first but upon arriving there, we couldn't have asked for a better place. Friendly staff, fun bowling, and delicious food! Didn't get to try the fries that everyone was talking about but maybe next time. I mean when a place goes through 300 pounds of potatoes from making fries in only four days, you know it has to be good!

Many people know of Deer Lodge as the home to a Montana state prison. It is much more than that and a very quaint small town with charm and friendly residents. The draft horse show at the fairgrounds is a must see as is the Grant-Kohrs Ranch.

Deer Lodge is easy to get to. It's a small town and it's main attraction is the Territorial Prison. A good tour of the prison, either self-guided or not. Just outside the prison is a great Ice Cream Shop. Town relies on the prison for its tourists. Other attractions on Main Street are related to the prison. However found a great coffee shop on Main Street, that served good coffee and breakfast. For those who do not want breakfast they have a drive-through.

Territorial Prison and car museums were great. The other four museums were enjoyable as well. We took a drive around the town and seen some really awesome old churches and other neat architectural buildings. Grant-Khor ranch exhibits were fascinating as well.

Broken down, decaying town. Sad to see as more businesses have closed since my last trip here. Very few restaurants, very little left in the town. The 4B restaurant right off the 90 is one of the few remaining restaurants and does not deserve to be open.

Museums and Grant-Kohrs Ranch were wonderful. Auto Museum is a must see if you are into cars. It is huge! Our receipt gives us access for a year abd we are only 3 hours away, so will be back for the Prison Museum and the others.
