We stayed on the lakeside and had the most fantastic views of the lake and mountains, including a breathtaking sunset. We dined in Ember restaurant 2 nights in a row and enjoyed the food, drinks, and view. Our days were spent hiking in the mountains and enjoying the National Park and the town of Estes. This will be a place we happily return to in the future.

Beautiful property! Great room. Nice staff. Great food at the restaurant. My only complaint was there was interior construction going on right next to our room. Fortunately we were out of the room during much of the time they were working. Also, couldn’t adjust the temperature in our room and it was too warm. In their defense we were only there one day and they said they would look into it.

Pleasant Stay

Our stay started with meeting Maxamillion at the reception desk. He was very friendly and always greeted us when entering and exiting. If we had questions he was able to answer them and provide us with a solution on whatever we needed. We also enjoyed the lake view and amenities like the fridge , water bottle filler, and microwave.

This is right on the water! We stayed one night with a family of 4. 2 adults and 2 5 year olds. Beds were very comfortable and the balcony was nice. The room was a little dated but had that Rocky Mountain charm. The hosts were very accommodating. We were there in early October and they had Smore kits for families for purchase ($7). There were several fire pits outside to use too! The best park about Eates park is hearing the Elk Bugle when walking out in the morning. A very special place in the heart of the Rockies.

The area was very nice but we were a little disappointed that there wasn’t anything to do in the evening. Looking forward to a warmer experience to see if there is more of a night life.

Our entire experience was amazing and so relaxing. Ember restaurant was delicious every time. Highly recommend going to the spa. We loved every minute of our stay! We walked to town a lot, but there are plenty of ride-share options the hotel can give you info about!

Bed bug found

An adolescent bed bug was found in room 105. There were no signs of an infestation in that room, but that means it came from somewhere else in the hotel. The staff and manager responded appropriately, however, we were not reimbursed for the inconvenience. That is, spending two hours, checking our clothing and luggage for Moore.
