This motel is right next to a river. It was so peaceful that you don't hear the highway above. The only negative thing is the bathroom is tiny. But it was clean and functional. We had an amazing trip and would stay again.

The staff is very kind and light-hearted. The view is wonderful. The property, though very old, is well maintained. The furniture is cute, and it matches the era. The shower water is unpredictable; it suddenly gets cold, switching back to hot just as quickly. The rooms are not air-conditioned; therefore, if it's going to be hot, sleeping will be a bit warm. The rooms are small and comfy. We enjoyed our stay. The drive to Loveland is 10 minutes and to Estes Park is 20.

The lady at the front desk was the sweetest! She was very helpful, the place was cozy, parking was easy, the place was easy to find, we were here for college graduation, and while everyone else was price gouging I felt this place was great for the price. Also I didn’t see the elk but because I missed it, the lady at the front desk showed me some footage of it and some other wild life and I thought that was so cool! Thank you for treating us like family and being so welcoming! I’d definitely stay here again
