Great employees ! Quaint property built with logs in a beautiful location but the mattress was really bad- very soft.... Breakfast waffles were amazing and coffee nice and hot. But for the bed we would return. The bathroom was immaculate and the tub/shower had railings which was very helpful.

Comfortable quiet spot
Comfortable stay, great service. Front desk responsive to the TV not working. Heating easy to control, easy to get ventilation, enough power outlets. Only negative was the shower control didn't completely block the bath faucet from flowing. Would highly recommend.

Comfortable, quaint, and walkable to a great pizza restaurant and the Carousel - also very close to Eldora. Only problem was that it was a little loud outside.

Great home base for outdoor adventures
Great place to stay for a ski weekend. The location can't be beat (very convenient to Eldora) and the room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We will be back in the summer for a weekend of mountain biking!

Bang bang
The stay was great and the service with better! The only things that I would have to complain about is the heater popping extremely loud when it would turn on and off. The bathroom also could use of extreme updating.
