Love all of the characteristics of the lodge filled with art and history. The main lobby is beautiful and enjoyed having coffee and a roaring fire in the fireplace with wonderful music in the background. The rooms were fantastic huge and loved the decor. The room was exceptionally clean and smelled so good when you walk in the door. The grounds were beautiful and the park in the back with the deck was so welcoming and the views of the snow cap Mountains from our room was a plus! Although we didn't get a chance to rent a bicycle loved the whole bicycle theme and love the Western flair.

We were looking forward to having breakfast in the main Lodge but unfortunately there was no gluten-free and vegan options. And for those who are vegan or not a nice addition also would be a few muffin choices such as blueberry, banana or cinnamon. I didn't see any bagels either or maybe we missed it because we got there at about 9:30.

We loved the casual, relaxed vibe. Everyone was very friendly and warm. It was only minutes away from Garden of God's. Definitely perfect location!! Restaurants and shops only some minutes away. Complimentary breakfast included. In the evening they had local artist perform for a few hours and he was quite talented. They offer beer from local breweries which we loved and gave us an opportunity to try them out since we didn't get a chance to visit them. They also have bikes available to check out if you wish to do so. We didn't get to take advantage of it but we thought that was very cool.

The place is a different experience! If an experience is what you're wanting or an adventure something you're seeking, then this might be up your alley. If you are used to boujee places, then maybe this might not be the place for you, but my husband and I personally loved the experience!!

Loved the vintage vibe of the resort with modern upgrades in the rooms. So close to many attractions, restaurants and trails. The free bicycles available were so much fun to use and just a short ride to Garden of the Gods. Even my son learned how to ride a bike without training wheels while we were here, now he's hooked on cycling :) The staff and owner were all very welcoming, friendly and helpful. There was live music on the weekends, a nice bar area, a heated pool, sand volleyball and a cute waffle breakfast set up in the mornings. Loved that you can park right in front of your cabin door, makes it so easy to get all your luggage in and out of your car and right into the room! Very happy I picked this cozy cabin over a hotel while staying in Colorado Springs.

We're still smiling when we think about our Thanksgiving stay at this incredible place! The surrounding area offered many opportunities for outdoor adventures, from exploring Garden of the Gods to tackling the Incline. But what truly made our stay unforgettable was the community. The live music and Thanksgiving potluck were the perfect opportunities to meet the lovely staff and locals, who made us feel like part of the family.

Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer! The accommodations were exactly as described, and in many ways, exceeded our expectations. We can't recommend this place highly enough!

Loved the common area, the live music at night, free bikes, and free breakfast. The staff were amazing. Very accommodating and quick to take care of any needs. We liked the aesthetic and that many locals attended the live music at night along with a different food truck daily.

The bathroom and specifically the shower need an update. The water pressure was not good and the water temperature was very inconsistent. It would go from very hot to cold and back again in a matter of minutes. If the showers were fixed, our experience would have been outstanding as it was the only negative from our stay.

Excellent value. The rooms were very clean and well kept. When approching the lodge for the first time, I thought, "yikes", this doesn't loook so good. But, this place is an excellent example of why one shouldn't judge a book by it's cover. The bicylce themed decor, the interior walls, and the floors were clean and modern. The bed was one of the in which I've ever slept. It was very soft yet suportive to the body. The in-room restroom was VERY small but clean. The room rest of the room was spaciouos with a refrigerator, micorwave, coffee maker, dining table, and easy chair. The motel-style resort design means that guests can park their car right outside their hotel room door, making it very easy to unload and load your luggage and access your vehicle easily throughout the stay. The complemtary evening entertainment, provided by local bands provided a nice touch to our stay. The well-cared for pool was clean with clear water. The manager, Sarah, formally worked at the Broadmore. You could see the excellent culture she is developing amoung all the friendly and helpful employees. She, and her staff, were attentive to our needs during our entire stay. I would highly recommend this place.

The exterior of the buildings appear pretty beat up and gave us a scare until we went inside our room. Then all our fears were aliviated. I'm not sure if the outside walls were left rugged as a part of the ambiance, or if the really need to be fixed.

The staff were welcoming and helpful with any questions we had about the resort or area. The rooms are large and comfortable and the beds were amazing! We loved having the outdoor pool, which was actually open at usable hours for people who are out and about exploring most of the day. We appreciated the laundry room and found that you don’t only get a place to stay but have a sense of community as well. They offer so much to their guests that we were not able to take advantage of because of our busy schedule, but next time we’ll definitely,y take them up on the bikes! Yes, we would definitely visit again!

The owners and staff were super friendly and helpful with things to do around the area. We enjoyed the music and food truck on the weekend. The breakfast was a little beyond Continental with two waffle machines and boiled eggs. Though not one of the renovated rooms, ours was clean and comfortable. The clean heated pool was very nice, too. The location is perfect for seeing lots of sites: from Garden of the Gods right down the street to Royal Gorge and St Elmo Ghost Town, both within 1.5-2 hours. We extended our stay two nights.

The only thing was that our room’s on-demand water heater needed to be set to a lower temp: someone could easily get scalded. The place was packed for the five days we were there and the really nice maintenance guy was hopping, so never got to that issue. We learned how to tweak it throughout each shower.

The location was a huge benefit. The atmosphere was very fun. The staff was very nice. The nightly shows and events were a very nice benefit to be able to come back to from our adventures and spend some time winding down just steps away from our room.

The rooms were completely clean and orderly however our only REAL complaint of the whole stay was the water temperature changes in the shower. With absolutely no warning, the water would go from completely normal to actual dangerously scaulding hot. I'm understanding and know the plumbing in the older buildings probably isn't the greatest and that's okay, but a warning to anyone with kids or, really just anyone in general might save some issues.

Loved the extremely friendly staff! We were able to use one of their many rental bicycles for free since we were staying there. This came in handy to use as we were able to pedal to the start of the Manitou Incline hike. Love the variety of activities that are offered there! We joined in at the last moment to participate in the Chasing Santa fundraiser! The group was exceptional! Great spot for home base to visit Garden of the Gods as well as Manitou Springs. Definitely will be returning!
