“There's a real advantage to being so close to Rocky Mountain National Park, and this hotel places you right there. While some rooms lean into a rustic feel, the heated outdoor pools stand out, even in cold weather. I particularly appreciate the convenience of having both a bakery on-site and BBQ facilities for a relaxed, family-style stay in the Rockies.”
