Ok alternative near Boulder

This hotel is convenient if you are trying to spend time in Boulder or want to be a little off the beaten path. Disappointing that none of the windows had screens on them that you could get fresh air and so the small rooms feel kind of cramped. Polyester sheets not my favorite. The staff is very friendly

Great location, rustic and had charm . The 3 bedroom cabin only has 1 bathroom on the first floor and it was hard to get that info beforehand in detail. Not convenient for a group considering the 2 bedroom next door has 2 bathrooms. Rooms comfy enough but not fancy . The floors were awful , full of dog hair, clumps of human hair, gross. Secondly had to wash every dish we used. Not cleaned properly.

Wonder and delight to just look at the area.

What an amaxing place to stay. They give you many choices for breakfast it's an unattended breakfast but it's wonderful. I just couldn't get enough non decaf coffee pouches. There's cream there's yogurts there's cheese there's everything for you in the mornings. The staff is very happy to talk to you and tell you all about the area and help you with directions. Talk about a wonderful place to eat the restaurant is outstanding everything we ate there was delicious

Rustic charm meets modern art

Nestled in quiet little valley with a stream, large, clean, rustic cabin with a great room and on-site restaurant, variety of interesting metal artworks both inside and out on the grounds, including a xylophone sound garden, close to Boulder and Upper and Lower Creek Calf Falls just a few minutes down the old Hells Backbone road. Very friendly staff.

The staff member at check in was extremely kind and welcoming. When we asked about what to do for dinner (which is limited in the area) because the restaurant on site was closed, she graciously called and made a reservation 10 minutes down the road at Hell’s Backbone Grill. The experience overall was great.

If you dream of staying in a log cabin guest ranch, this is the real deal. Its a beautiful log cabin , set in the mountains of Utah. I really enjoyed the hotel and the staff were awesome! It is very remote, but for me, it added to the appeal. There is a restaurant on site and we had a nice meal there. The server was extremely nice.

Beautiful location. Room was small but clean. Shower was small but had good pressure. We felt like we had the whole ranch to ourselves and even received a free meal with service from the chef for no reason other than it was slow and they were being friendly.

A very quaint experience. In the middle of nowhere a very rustic lodge. Staff were awesome, we got a bigger room after finding the first one a bit too small. The heating panel didn't work properly in our room but it was solved with a space heater that worked well. The onsite restaurant is excellent; too bad they don't serve breakfast, only dinner.
