Very rustic but beautiful surroundings. Unfortunately office staff is not available between 8 pm and 9 am and we lost hot water at that time so unable to shower in time for an appointment. Staff was not apologetic but offered another room to shower though it was too late. No partial refund offered. Warning: zero bathroom counter space, poor lighting and you have to wash your dishes and take out trash before you leave. You will bang your leg into the metal bed frame LOL! Gorgeous surroundings though!

Serene

We loved it here. We got great personal service and tour of the property, wildlife included! I would recommend using the space to cook, as all restaurants are about 20-mins away. But still quite convenient as we headed into Estes park anyway. I liked the peace and not being in town. I read and had my coffee by the river in the sunny early morning

100% would go back! Staff was very nice and accommodating when original booking couldnt be honored. Upgraded us at the same price! Also a nice welcome basket waiting for us. Never had a large chain hotel do that for us. Nice view and river is easily accessible for fishing or dunking your feet. Just the stay we needed to de-stress from everyday life.

Stony River Lodge is a little old motel along Hwy 34 between Loveland and Estes Park. Our room was small, but I expected this based on the description and pictures on Expedia. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

Beautiful drive from Loveland (15-20 min.) The owner is a lovely person who really cares for guests' comfort. I loved the relaxing area with table & chairs near the Thompson stream / river. Access to where we planned to go was convenient and easy. My only wish was for a corkscrew/wine opener in cabin eight (8). Thanks so much!!
