Beautiful location
Carlos, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

When i book at room, I will always check that it has WiFi as I am depending on this to work, so when I arrive at a hotel and am informed that the wifi is not working in the rooms, but I am free to use the lobby, it's bad. No amenities, no possibility for breakfast. Surroundings are beautiful.

Great place if you want no amenities

Pros: Great property, balcony off the room, helpful and friendly staff Cons: No A/C, no TV, extremely limited Wifi, deafening silence in the room. Everything was closed and we only saw one other couple. It's a great place to stay if you're looking for complete silence and want to be cut off from the outside world. We won't stay there again.

When it said there was fridges and microwaves I thought it meant it would be in our room. That was disappointing.

Marius, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is old but has Character, I Didn't know the Lodge was Daoism, but it was very quiet and the staff was great. No active Kitchen, so we had to go down to Estes Park to eat. They did provide pastries in the morning. No TV, or Internet connection. There was Wifi if you wanted to phone out. If you don't have children that need to be entertained, then I would recommend it for a getaway for a weekend. There is Horseback Riding next door.
