Bring lunch to Red Lodge's designated sack-lunch areas

Open tip ↗

Red Lodge permits coolers and packed lunches in its designated sack-lunch areas; Main Lodge seating is reserved for food and beverage service. Ask staff which areas are available that day, and consider eating outside the busiest lunch period. If you need bag storage, the dedicated locker page lists day and overnight rates as TBA, despite older fees still appearing in the FAQ. Confirm the current price and storage limits before budgeting, and do not assume restaurant tables are available for storing bags.
