10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic little place. The family loved waking up and seeing all the little goslings running around. It was very close to downtown Estes and RMNP. We had a great time there.
David, 2-night trip

SUCH a cute place for our stay in Estes Park! Loved the room and the fact that you could see the Rockies from our window. Would stay here again.

Time In Estes Park

Had a wonderful stay at this older motel. The room was extremely spacious. While the carpeting was old and curtains a little dated, the room was very comfortable. We had great views from windows on three sides. Even got lucky enough to see a small herd of mule deer come for a visit!

Close to Rocky Mountain NP

Location is great, breakfast was limited however there are plenty of options within walking distance.

Lodge outside the Rockies, conveniently located to the park. Upon entering the room there’s nothing that stands out that makes you go oh this is a good room! However, the bed was probably one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in while traveling.

Nice hotel close to town

The hotel is in a good location, nice surroundings with the pond and golf course, close to downtown. Rooms are definitely not very well sound proof and we didn't have soap or shampoo but after asking they filled it up. Breakfast is limited to toast and cereal.

Loved the roominess of this hotel. Each of our party of 5 had own bed. Breakfast VERY minimal- toast, coffee, cereal, yogurt. Bathroom baseboards and walls were very dirty and bathroom door would not open all the way. For the price it was worth it- nice and roomy for large family.

Sweet little lodge. Great location. Accommodations were comfortable enough. Was not happy with our room location under the office: CLOMP CLOMP CLOMP beginning at 7am, plus noisy running water in the walls, so can’t recommend Rooms 101 -103.
