The property was exactly as advertised. I was pleasantly surprised to discover how close it is to Elk Avenue, the main street in town. The area is extremely safe and felt very homey. All of the staff was helpful and friendly.

The building is historic but perfectly updated. Breakfast is excellent with a freshly made main course and superb additional items. The main floor is very comfortable and inviting. And finally the location is two blocks off the street that has all the restaurants and stores

Great lodge in downtown Crested Butte

This was a lovely place to stay. Staff so friendly and helpful, they had a great breakfast and snacked in the evening. Many sitting places in the hotel to visit and gather. The Lodge is located right in town, so nice to walk to everything, yet very quiet. Would definitely stay here again! Donna

8/10 Very good

Cute little boutique hotel in a great area. Small room, a bit creaky and a/c is a window fan right at a bedside. But overall a great experience. Would definitely stay again.

Miss it already!

Such a homey welcoming experience. Simple and rustic, one block from the Main Street. Just what we were looking for. Friendly staff, yummy breakfast, homemade cookies and tea in the afternoon and comfortable beds. Loved it here. Hope to be back soon!

Our group had 3 rooms. What a great place. The breakfasts were delicious. The inn was very comfortable and cozy, perfect for a ski vacation. It’s located basically downtown so everything was close. We took the bus up to the ski mountain… very convenient. We also skied x country which was even more convenient.

Wow. Felt like we were staying at a relative's home for the week. Doug - you made our stay in CO amazing. Basic hotel, great breakfast, perfect location (not smack in the center of town, but close enough for everything to be convenient), safe, comfortable.

Friendly, inviting, delicious

The Elk Mountain Lodge was an absolute delight. From the check-in staff diligently texting instructions and making my check in easy given the possibility of late arrival, to the homemade breakfasts and evening cookies, to the setting in what appears to be a retrofitted 20th century mansion, everything synthesizes together to create a warm, friendly, inviting vibe. And you still get the ski-conveniences and luxuries like a ski rack room and hot tub. Wonderful place.

Lovely,traditional guesthouse in centre of town.

Lovely, comfortable and welcomng. Great welcome from the host, cosy room, and lovely home cooked breakfast. Range of foods offered and the host checked that we were ok when ever he saw us. Hot water and a range of hot drinks available at Ash times. Cozy lounge area to meet and chat with other guests. We didn’t use the hot tub but it looked good.

Affordable and Fantastic Service

Love the Elk Mountain Lodge! As a former longtime, Gunnison county resident, I have stayed there before with family and my girlfriend and I decided to choose this fantastic lodging option again. Walkable and close to everything in town, including the mountain shuttle. Special shout out to the fantastic service by Eric and Doug as we had to leave a day early and they provided us a full refund for unused night. Don’t hesitate to check out the elk Mountain Lodge, one of the better lodging options in downtown Crested Butte!
