Great property and close to everything you need. Used the bikes to go around Estes Lake by crossing the road. Wildlife was walking on the grounds too, deer come within ten feet while on the hammocks if you’re lucky! No complaints.

Room amenities were lacking. For the age of the building and the price, it was decent. We did have one amenity, and that was s’mores in the evening, and there were elk around with their babies. That was the best part of it. Parking was good. I would give it a 3.5 stars.

I just wish they would have had a microwave in the room so we could heat up our food. It was crazy hot in the daytime so I would have liked for them to have an ice machine and for the pool to be opened. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and beds were comfortable.

Rooms look a little dated and we had an issue with the hairdryer which didn’t seem to get resolved. Great location for walking into Estes Park and getting to RMNP. Restaurant on site but we didn’t use it. I would not rate this accommodation as 4* although we did enjoy our stay. We did have an issue with room charges (credit card charged despite us prepaying ) and this is ongoing so hope it is resolved quickly.

We were disappointed that there was no breakfast available, no food service available, and no bar service available the whole time we were there. The fire ring was broken in back so only one worked in front. The complimentary smores were very nice. Really cute lobby and nice place to relax. Nice location.

We enjoyed our stay. The front desk clerk was not so friendly though. Upon checking in, he was distracted with text messages and was a bit cold. When we checked out he again was cold. I don’t know if he has a problem with people who book through a third party vender, but on two occasions, checking in then checking out, he said something about the fact I booked through a third party vender with a rather unsavory tone. The food was good as well as the server.
