The view of Longs Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park is spectacular! The lodge is old and gorgeous! No frills but very comfy. The staff were so nice and helpful! Having horseback riding right there is ultra convenient. We will stay there again!

THE BEST view of Longs Peak, and Twin Sisters right on the other side. Historical lodge with trails all around it- there was even a humble breakfast in the lobby. Peaceful and so close to estes park. Recommend.
