The Cameron House Hotel is popular with golfers as it is situated just south of Loch Lomond Golf Club and the Carrick Golf Club.
It also has its own Cameron House Golf Course and is close-by to the Vale of Leven Golf Club.
A statement on the Cameron House Hotel's website reads:
"Due to an ongoing incident please be aware that Cameron House will remain closed to arriving guests for at least the next 48 hours.
"We would ask all guests and customers to remain patient as we work with the emergency services to establish the extent of the damage and ascertain when we will be able to re-open.
"More information will follow in due course."
