Perfect stay
The 2 rooms I booked were immaculate. Couldn’t ask for better. The staff was friendly and helpful. The amenities were perfect for all ages. We loved this little resort. Walking distance to downtown also.

Comfortable Stay
The location is very nice; it's a few minutes walk to the downtown area, yet it still has a bit of a stream and nice mountain view. The breakfast was top notch! I love the DVD rentals for my family. The rooms are a bit dated, but clean and comfortable enough. Nice balcony too! The pool was a good end of the day activity, but the hot tub looked a bit eh to me. Maybe some more updates and maintaining to that area. Overall, pleased with the stay!

A home away from home!
Great views, comfortable and felt like a home away from home. Great location just north of the Estes shops and restaurants. The pool was enjoyable for the boys and wore them out quickly. The views of the creek and having a porch swing right outside the back of our lodge was very enjoyable.
