What a happy accident:) just looking for a place to sleep and we landed in the cutest little cabin with a perfect fire and the Fall River lulling us to sleep. All the staff we encountered were absolutely wonderful and accommodating. Looking forward to another, longer stay!

Castle Mountain Lodge Stay
This stay was unforgettable due to location and frequent animal sightings. The area along river was an attraction in itself. The only negative was no having climate controlled room (AC). It would have been less noticeable if the cabins were designed to let heat out of room with windows properly placed at top to let airflow cool room. All and all we loved the placed and would return again.

Great place to stay!
Every employee we interacted with was very pleasant and friendly, especially the staff in the lobby. It felt like chatting with small town neighbors. We LOVED our cabin! The property is walking distance to town (one mile on a flat path). We WILL stay there again next time we head to Estes Park.

Loved our stay here! Just minutes from downtown Eates Park and the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. Staff was super friendly and easily accommodated our late arrival. Freshly baked chocolate chip cookies in the office! Peaceful surroundings. Highly recommend
