A small downgrade for the fact that a previous guest must have had a dog. My allergies were really reactive. Cleaning after pets could be better. Otherwise everything was perfect. Nice set up.

Cool place. Nicely decorated. I had been initially worried about cold, but the suite was VERY warm and has radiant heat in the floor. My only suggestion would be to add a mini fridge in the suite.

Fancy yurts don’t hurt

It was a nice little retreat! Very cool, in the middle of one of the most beautiful places in Colorado. Easy to get to wolf creek, dunes , crestone, etc. 10/10 would stay there again . No movies sunday -Thursday, but still a very cool place non-the less! Also the pellet stove in the yurt kind of rules , will keep you very warm all night!

I loved the modern decor of the suite, spa-like bathroom, quiet surroundings, view of the night sky. This is quite rural. Check-in was easy via a texted code for the keypad. Microwave but no fridge. Hot water kettle, but no coffee or tea, so it went unused. I also did not use the kitchen in a different building. I would stay here again.

Watching a movie on a big screen (former drive in) outside under the stars sitting in a folding chair with a down blanket and popcorn/ fabulous!!!! Worth the effort. I don’t like the trend of no on site managers and no response to email but i understand from an economic point of view it is necessary. Some emails were answered and some went unanswered. It’s a well taken care of property.

I thought this would be a funky and memorable place take a weekend trip and it did not disappoint. There were so many details that I did not expect: a great lawn for viewing movies, cute matching chairs, freshly popped popcorn, fire pits outside the yurts, cool led lighting everywhere, bedside mints, fluffy towels, etc. It was super clean and comfortable. I wasn’t really into the movie, but that didn’t matter. We stayed out on the lawn to watch for awhile, then went back by the fire pit to hang out. I can’t wait to go back. San Luis Valley also has the Gator farm, Penitente Canyon, Great Sand Dunes, Mountain biking, and so much more!

Very fun stay! We stayed in one of the yurts. A lot more fancy than I was expecting. Very tastefully decorated with a great pellet stove that made it very cozy. The bath house was very clean and easy to access. We would recommend this for a fun and unique experience that is a little off the beaten path.

So so

I wouldn’t come here when it’s hot, lack of air conditioning in the rooms is not enjoyable. Also grass area is full of mosquitos and hard to enjoy a film depending on time of year

The Frontier Inn is a hidden Jem almost surreal! All good there but very limited choices for convenience stores and supermarkets near by. If you plan to stay there make sure to bring your own provisions ! I would go back there again ! AP
