Clean spacious room. Very small shower stall. A little noisy with neighbors and upstairs shower. They did provide ear plugs! Mini-refrigerator with freezer, microwave and Keurig were greatly appreciated. Staff responded promptly. Check in and check out totally virtual. Is there access to an ice machine?

Very cozy environment, pretty good pricing for a small Colorado town. Super easy and convenient check in which was the best check in I have ever experienced. Honestly the only reason it’s not a 5 star is the king size bed mattress I slept on absolutely was blown out and very uneven and needs to be replaced. The furnace in the room was super old and dated, BUT it did work and I didn’t freeze… and lastly bathroom felt very small, you have to close the door to be able to use the toilet at all.

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 :)
