Right on Lake Estes the views from the restaurant and room couldn't be better, the "resort" however is not that stunning. Billing itself as a spa I expected a relaxing environment to enjoy a sauna and perhaps a massage. When exploring the "spa" I found that the sauna was in the gym area in full view of the work-out gear.... More

This is a very nice facility with a great location. It is clean, safe and well maintained. We felt like the price was a little high for the amenities in comparison to other resorts we have used. Our greatest concern though was the complete lack of response from management when we had a problem. In the middle of our first... More

Rooms were clean but price seemed way to high for the amenities. We also had to have our door lock fixed and the air conditioner didn't work. The pool is small and the hot tub was a weird yellow so I didn't venture in there.

Had a graduation party for my daughter's high school graduation up stairs in the Mezzanine room. Everything was perfect. Very clean, good staff and food and drink excellent. Would highly recommend. Thanks.

I have been staying at the Estes Park Resort for many years now when I travel to Estes Park to announce the award winning Rooftop PRCA Rodeo in July. The Lakeside Rooms are great with incredible views of Rocky Mt National Park and service has been good as well.

I booked my stay in March. I requested mountain views. When we got to the room it overlooked the parking lot with small rock hills. This was obviously not what I pictured. We went to the desk and they told us that is mountain views. I told them I requested to have a view of Rocky Mountain National Park (Long's... More

I have been returning to this resort for 13 years, it is simply unparalleled . Wonderful staff who are like family. The mountain vista is astounding, eagles soaring outside the restaurant window, elk coming to drink from the lake I can't think of another hotel that has such natural beauty and wildlife. I am a San Franciscan, the other best... More

This lodge on the lake brings back what I desire as a traveler: GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! We were greeted with lemonade and cookies, instantly offered an upgrade, given information on amenities and things to do. The restaurant was worth the price for the view and the food. Coffee in the room or the lobby in the morning. A beautiful lake... More

I stay here with my family every year. The location is great and the service is stellar. The level of service is comparable to none. I would highly reccomend a visit to the estes park resort. You will not be sorry.

Here's my honest opinion: The room is nice - as it should be (we're paying $289 for a night - $320 with taxes). Here's the part where the Estes Park Resort gets a huge FAIL...We ordered room service for dinner. $60 and nearly an hour later (the room service brochure says food will be delivered within 30 minutes) the food...
