Great little lodge. Rustic but clean and functional. Staff was wonderful. The only reason I didn’t give it a five star all around is that the entrance had a lot of potholes and you need to make a sharp turn into the property.

The rooms are cozy and offered a cabin-like feeling. It was right in town and easy to get to and from the popular spots (downtown and RMNP). My only complaint was the beds weren't the greatest.

Booked a mountain room with a view and got a parking lot view. Although you could walk out the door a few feet and see the mountains. The hotel is older but in great shape. Comfortable beds and the room was large. Old tiles in the bathrooms which I do like. Nostalgic. Staff was very nice. Convenient location to downtown. Just a short walk. Would stay again.
