Every stay I've had at Columbine Inn has been splendid. The staff is helpful and available 24/7. The rooms are clean and spacious. I go to Winter Park and via the side road it's never more than a 45min drive to the Mary Jane free parking.

Probably my favorite small motel that I have ever stayed in! The host was so nice and willing to do almost anything to make the stay comfortable. The room was small but very comfortable. Very clean and quiet. The proximity to ski resort was a plus. No negatives at all. Doesn't have all the extras of a big hotel but it is perfect for a ski stay or I'm sure a summer trip as well.
