Great lodging concept.

Great concept for lodging, movie and meals. We stayed in the steamer suite which has a private bathroom. Simplistic, comfortable, quiet, nicely appointed room with walk out patio. We had brought our blackstone and cooked dinner on the rock gravel just off the patio. The accommodations were perfect. There is a concession area that you can rent cooking boxes to make your meals. We toured the facility while we were there. The commercial kitchen is outstanding. Everything you would need to prepare a lovely meal for yourself. Plenty of table and bar seating inside the concession area. There wasn’t a movie playing the night we stayed, but we will definitely return when one is playing.

Just so sick to have a drive-inn in the middle of nowhere. Great start-gazing and literally an entire restuarant-level kitchen to use in the shared dining area.

Lovely place. Construction during our stay but otherwise very pleasant. Not many options for food close by but the shared “snack bar” space is very nice. Would definitely stay again!

We booked for the drive inn and were not aware that it only plays certain nights. The rooms were clean. The site is under construction with little signage so it wasn't clear where to park and the construction noise started promptly at 7 a.m. While it has potential long-term, I have no desire to return.

Really fun spot! We stayed in a yurt - the bathrooms and kitchen were very clean and updated. The temperature control was quite tricky with the pellet stove. But overall, I would recommend!

Wow! What a unique place!! Nothing I have ever seen, but a great concept. Wish we could have seen a movie but not in season yet:) about 45min from Great Sand Dunes NP. The drive here was amazing too. Out in the middle of nowhere:) I only gave it a 4 for surrounding area since they are in middle of construction but I’m sure it’ll be fine soon. Luke was very helpful:)
There are yurts
Kitchen was very nice!
This is where our suite was. Heated floors!!
Outside movies for the summer

I love this place! It’s in the middle of nowhere but that’s part of its charm. The rooms are so beautiful and comfortable. The shared kitchen is awesome, especially because there aren’t really restaurants anywhere nearby…

A small downgrade for the fact that a previous guest must have had a dog. My allergies were really reactive. Cleaning after pets could be better. Otherwise everything was perfect. Nice set up.
