Everything was as expected. Nice lodge feel with super warm rooms and very comfortable beds. The restaurant and bar were great to have on site. The hot tub and sauna were a bust, but that didn't have an impact on our stay.

The rooms are decorated very nice with log furniture and very spacious and clean. The closest hotel to the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park. Plus walkable to the downtown of Grand Lake. Nice little mountain town.

Really enjoyed our stay. Jason at the front desk was very welcoming. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms were cute and rustic, styled like a cabin.

The building and staff were nice but the shower was disgusting. There was slimey spots and body hair on the toilet with red slime around the sides. I'm assuming they know because they didn't ask about our stay. We would stay there again if it was cleaner in the bathroom.
