About this property

Cozy mountain lodge room steps from glacial lakes & Mt. Elbert

Wake up to the Colorado Rockies at the Roadhouse Lodge -- the closest lodging to the glacial Twin Lakes and the Mt. Elbert trailhead, the highest peak in the Rocky Mountains. This cozy room is your basecamp for adventure and your retreat at the end of the day.

THE ROOM
Settle into a snug mountain-lodge room with a comfortable Queen bed, fresh linens, and your own private bath. Heating keeps things warm on crisp alpine nights and Wi-Fi keeps you connected, while the windows frame the kind of mountain-and-lake views you came to Colorado for.

THE LODGE
The historic Roadhouse Lodge sits right in Twin Lakes Village, with a welcoming porch made for morning coffee and evening stargazing. Easy self check-in means you can arrive any time you roll in from the trail.

THE LOCATION
You're steps from the Twin Lakes shoreline and the Mt. Elbert trailhead, with world-class hiking, fishing, paddling and skiing all around:
- Ski Cooper (Leadville) - 30 min
- Copper Mountain - 50 min
- Leadville - 20 min
- Buena Vista - 25 min
- Aspen (summer, via Independence Pass) - 1 hr
- Monarch, Vail, Keystone & Breckenridge - about 1 to 1.5 hrs

GOOD TO KNOW
Independence Pass typically closes roughly December through May depending on weather -- check CDOT for current road conditions. Expect peaceful, quiet vibes and brilliant starry skies in the shoulder and winter seasons.

Whether you're summiting a fourteener, casting into the lakes, or simply unplugging in the mountains, the Roadhouse Lodge is your cozy home base in the heart of the Colorado high country.
