I booked a studio room for a friend in I for fall break. We got a great deal of only $80/night but were upgraded to a one bedroom for free! The place has a lot of charm and is one of the oldest lodges in Estes Park

The food was fantastic as was the service. More expensive than a trip to well known chains but not quite 'fine dining' with fine dining quality. The Views are incredible without a doubt. Definitely would go back.

We have eaten here a couple of times and always happy with it. The view is spectacular, the wait staff nice and helpful, and the food was good. We also enjoyed the entertainment on Labor Day weekend. He sang/played guitar. Very nice. And his photography was good too! Always a treat to eat here.
