We liked how close it was to RMNP, we were able to walk to Estes Park, so that wasn’t bad. Parking is not that good and it’s gravel so you track the sand into your room. But it is very outdoorsy and gives you the feel of being out away from everything.

The place is nice and quiet, the only thing that needs to be remodeled is the interior of the rooms.

The lady working there I believe her name was Jessica was extremely helpful and friendly! Made it a great stay as they are very accommodating. A nice little low-key place to stay that is away from town yet very close.

Great place!
Our room was right in the brook, with a balcony overlooking the water. Our room was clean and comfortable. Everyone at the lodge was so helpful and so nice. We got in late. And the checkin was so easy! Would definitely stay here again. It was also super close to the park and downtown! Right in the middle between the two, so you didn't have to drive through the downtown traffic to get to the park. There were still restaurants in walking distance. Such a great, peaceful spot!
