"Perfect Holiday Weekend Getaway"

10.0

Spacious room right on the Fall River. Easy access to the downtown shopping areas (.4 mile walk) and numerous restaurants and candy/ice cream shops. Super easy access as well to the Beaver Meadows Park entrance to RMNP. Plan on crowds and busy streets during the summer months, but the Lodge is just far enough away to make the river your only background ambience. Staff was courteous and helpful with any and all requests. Thanks for a wonderful weekend.

Enjoyed our stay. Big room was perfect for us and our dog. Room was a little worn but very clean. Location was perfect. 1/2 mile walk into the center of town and less than 20 minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park. Would definitely stay there again.

"Exceptional!"

10.0

Rustic decor; large desk; painted wall art; bathroom towel sculptures and toilet tissue stamp and tissue flower - the attention to detail made it 5 star ambiance. In room large refrigerator and microwave. A heated indoor pool was a plus for me. I was able to do my water aerobics and therapy for my torn miniscus leg. I didn't get the chance to try breakfast but I'm sure it was a plus to have it available. My family enjoyed it. We were impressed by the immediate follow up after making reservations. Text message prior to check in; and online check in. Quite unexpected for a little lodge in the mountains. If it wasn't snowing rain, I'm sure we could have enjoyed the river and patio. We made do, and left our little snowman figures and animals on the patio table. I would definetly return if ever in the area again. The values of the management are worthy of training the next generation of hotel managers. (P.S. I come from a travel tourism hospitality background)
