Not a lot of parking unfortunately. The room was nice and clean. The bathroom is very small. Overall all it was a nice little weekend getaway.

Clean, friendly, no-frills, parking included
Clean, friendly, no-frills, parking included, less than a minute walk to the wonderful new-show-every-day repertory theatre and just steps to all the shops on the main road (Grand). Thankfully, not too close to the louder hotels in town where the parties go into the wee hours and the bands can be heard in the streets. No view of the Lake but it's a very reasonable walk away. LET THE LODGE KNOW IF STEPS ARE HARD FOR YOU IN ADVANCE. Half the rooms are on level 2 and they require you to walk the stairs with your bags. No elevator. Cleaning was on demand and as a solo traveler, I didn't request any during my week stay. I did request extra towels and an extra blanket which I received immediately. If you seek a comfortable, clean crash pad, this is a fine choice. If you are looking for a fancy hotel experience, this isn't for you.

Perfect location in downtown Grand Lake. Nice staff. Easy access to downtown, lakes, rivers, and a waterfall. Adorable lodge, but bring earplugs if you need a good nights rest.

Didn’t enjoy the service as much because they didn’t have clear lines of communication due to a wedding at the lodge. Phone went to voicemail with no call back; had to email. Had to wait for front desk by knocking on door behind it for someone to help. Otherwise, it’s a fairly decent hotel room with a kitchenette. Kinda no thrills but you pay for what you get.

Thank you for letting us know about your stay as we appreciate any and all feedback. We apologize our lodging did not meet your expectations. While our buildings hold much character after being on our property for almost 70 years, we do try our best to keep our facilities as updated and comfortable as possible. We understand the rustic feel of Grand Lake lodging may not be for everyone. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us and we hope you had a wonderful rest of your trip!

It was fine. My expectation was set high based on the property photos and listing. In the end, it was a very basic roadside motel. The rooms were clean enough, but my son had allergy issues in the 'pet friendly' room which speaks to higher dander. We wouldn't stay again at that rate, but it was fine for a stop over as it is very convenient to walking around town.

Thank you for choosing to stay with us and for the useful feedback. We are very sorry to hear your expectations were not met during your stay. We are always wanting to accommodate our guests needs and would have loved to relocate you and your family to one of our non-pet rooms due to allergies. While we do offer a more rustic experience than your average chain hotel, the rich history and mountain environment is what we love most about Grand Lake and it's properties. We hope you had a wonderful time in our little town and had a safe trip back home!

Cute but very small. Does not have air conditioning so got hot inside quite often.I like how they had a tv in the bedroom and in the living room area. Fireplace was cute. Smelled a bit strange inside when we got there. Not sure if it was the cleaners they use but did not smell good. Tub was a bit dirty. It was a cozy place to stay. Not the greatest but not terrible
