This has nice little cabin like rooms. It was very clean and the staff quickly helped with extra towels, etc.. You do need to be aware that the rooms have heat, but no A/C.

This is my second stay at this hotel, and it was as good as the last time. The owner is very friendly and informative. Though the area is in a quiet area to begin with , try and get a room to the back side as the view and quiet is really nice Mark S.
Mark, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff were very nice and communicated effectively over text messages. Overall the room, mountain view and cleanliness were good but the centralized AC only had heating feature and the shower area was a bit restrictive. They kindly provided a large table fan but it was a bit too warm during the early evenings with all the heat during July.

Welcoming stay

This was a very clean, quaint, and comfortable room/facility. It was made very “personable and welcoming”, the owners were communicative, and the stay was very pleasant. I highly recommend this lodge and will stay again if in the area.

My husband and I stayed at this property for a night while driving across Colorado for vacation. South Fork, Colorado is a great town in the middle of the mountains! We enjoyed our stay at the Spruce Lodge. The room we stayed in looked like it was remodeled, yet it still had an old-school charm :) We could see the mountains from our door and smell the pine when we opened it. While there is no complimentary breakfast here, there are great food options in the area. Local eateries were within driving distance from the Lodge and I would definitely suggest Tiny Timbers for breakfast!! Their breakfast burritos and bacon, cheese, and green Chile croissant are delicious!!!:) The only thing I would suggest to the hotel is maybe offering guests the ability to turn on/ off the outside porch lights in front of their rooms. My husband and I really wanted to stargaze the night we stayed at the hotel, but we encountered a little light pollution from the porch light that evening. Overall, this hotel is a treasure that I'm happy we found on our vacation this past week :)

Lodge has been nicely updated and while the rooms are small, it is more than adequate. Bathroom has been retrofitted; shower could be small for larger clients. We had no problem and the owners are very helpful!
