Here are a couple of recent visitors having a gobbling good time!  They have visited with some regularity over the winter, sometimes a few and sometimes 2 dozen or more. Everyone enjoys the opportunity to see the wildlife around the lodge and all over Estes Park and Rocky. We hope you will come enjoy it with us.

Spring is arriving, trees and bushes budding out, grass greening up, the elk dropping their antlers, and Fall River bubbling along as the snow melt is increasing. Come spend a couple of days enjoying Spring in the mountains. And don't forget to make your summer reservations. Our calendar is filling up.

Cross over Fall River on our Covered Bridge to the peaceful mountain vacation that awaits you. First, nestle into your cozy cabin, suite or room. Then take a walk or fish along the river, hike up our mountainside that leads into Rocky Mountain National Park, sit out on the deck or patio to spot the Elk, Deer, Wild Turkeys, chipmunks, Red Fox or feathered friends who visit us regularly. Lastly, relax in a hot tub, read by a crackling fire and then retire to the rippling waters of Fall River. Your magical experience begins now with a warm “Castle” welcome!
