Wonderful rustic cabin experience. Small but surrounded by nature, mountains, trees. Helpful manager, great teas, easy parking, nice walk to downtown area along the creek. Canyon location but accessible to everything )CU, Pearl Street, The Hill, etc).

Staff was very friendly and provided great suggestions of places to eat for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner! Our room was very clean and cozy, enjoyed the hot tub and local restaurants. Very pleased with our experience here! The only “problem” was the WiFi. Other than that I have no complaints! We will definitely be back!

Jana, at the front desk, was very welcoming and personable when checking in. She told me about the complimentary sauna and cold plunge by Ember and Ice that is on the property. The experience was fabulous! Everything in the room was clean except for the sheets. They didn’t seem fresh, so I asked for a new set and received them immediately. This is the second time I have stayed here and I love this little motel and location. The views are gorgeous and you can’t beat the park, creek and mountains just feet away! Everyone was really nice throughout my stay.
