Chief's Head Peak Sum

Summary:
Nestled in the beautiful rocky mountains is historic Ferncliff, Colorado. Come experience wellness in the wild and your home away from home with steam showers, luxury linens/amenities, and a shared hot tub. The Ferncliff Lodge aims to allow guests to escape the fast paced city life and relax for a few nights. Ferncliff sits a bit over an hour away from Denver, CO as well as just 20 minutes away from the town of Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, known for their rustic mountain charm and incredible hiking/sightseeing.

The Space:
Chief's Head Peak room sits alongside our 3 lodge/hotel style rooms. The suite boasts 2 double/full beds as well as a balcony to take in the nature around you. Additionally, there is a walk-in steam shower with heated floors. The suite also has a kitchenette equipped with a small sink, dishes/utensils, toaster oven, coffee/tea/hot chocolate maker, and a closet.

Guest Access:
Your stay at the Chief's Head Peak Suite will be contactless, but we do have staff on call to help with any requests. 48 hours before your arrival you'll receive detailed check-in instructions including your code for the smart locks. There is no front desk on property. You'll have access to your reserved room, as well as the community hot tub area and deck.

The Neighborhood:
Directly across the street from the property there's Ferncliff Food & Fuel, which is a small supermarket and gas station for any essential needs. In the summer, they're fully stocked with everything from toiletries to meats and pizza. There is also a laundromat across the street as well as a a liquor store with a great selection and 2 fuel pumps. There's a back entrance to Rocky Mountain Park a few minutes down the road as well as the entrance to Long's Peak. Within 15 minutes you'll find some of the best hiking and wildlife Colorado has to offer.

Getting Around:
We recommend renting or bringing a car to best explore the surrounding areas. There isn't any public transit in the area until you get to Estes Park or Lyons. In the winter months we also strongly recommend an AWD or 4x4 vehicle whenever going to the mountains.

Other Things to Note:
Ferncliff isn't a big mountain town, so we recommend bringing anything you need with you for your stay. If you forget anything, there's always the market across the street. Ferncliff is a rural town which means there's no cell service, but we do have high speed Starlink Internet on the property.

Interaction with Guests:
Our lodge operates as fully contactless so there aren't any full time staff and there isn't an office on the property. We have on call staff for anything you may need during your stay, so please don't hesitate to reach out.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and an ironing board.

Place was nice and clean, but the water did not appear to be drinkable. There was a container provided to go get drinking water, but we were only staying one night so did not do that. The steam shower was amazing. I will say that things close up early in this town so if you want food better plan on eating early. Maybe just the time of year we stayed not sure about that.

Great stay!

Very clean space and pretty secluded so it was very quiet. It is a bit small but if you are planning on being out in the outdoors for the majority of the time it is a great place to stay!

This home away from home had all I needed, from a steam shower to preparing food. The modern decor was a complimentary contrast to the rockies.

Clean and cozy

While the place is a bit cramped for four people, it was a clean and tastefully furnished space near Estes Park that we enjoyed. The shower is fantastic and the interior space was thoughtfully laid out.
