Stoney River Lodge

This place was cute and totally fulfilled my want for an "Eagle" room. Sunrise was pretty and it's close to everything! Thanks so much!

The Lodge is quaint, fairly isolated, and old fashioned lodging. We found it comfortable, and quiet.

Stayed in the Eagle room. Just like the pictures. Very clean inside and a quiet location. Decent bed and plenty of hot water nothing fancy and the lady running the place was nice.

Old but clean (no smells) and has updates. Owner/manager on property 24/7. Helpful and friendly. Large Apple tree in yard and river view.

We stayed in The Bird room and it was perfect for a our family. The lodge is clean and quaint! We would recommend the Stoney River Lodge to anyone visiting the Rocky Mountains.

Overall, really nice. The location and setting are great. I liked that it was a more affordable option than staying in Estes Park but only added about a 20 min drive. Appreciated the basket of some snacks. Friendly check in. The room is a bit rustic, but they are cabins so I expected that. The main negative thing is that the outside light shines through the door window and there’s no curtain or shade to block it, so if you need it dark in order to sleep, this might be an issue.

We stayed 3 nights mid-July on our trip to the Rocky Mountains NP. And we’re glad we booked Cowboy room in Linda’s lodge. It was a very good choice two people: 1) The lodge is located in a spectacular CANYON right next to the Thompson River. The scenery of the area differed than one in the NP, and that made our drives back after whole days spent hiking in the NP enjoyable. 2) The location of the lodge in the canyon caused decreased temperatures. We comfortably slept through every night while keeping the windows open. There was no need need for AC or a fan at night. On our last day, we made it back to lodge sooner than on previous days (around 3pm) and enjoyed the afternoon with a fan on. I was cooking while we stayed in the lodge, and never had I felt an level of heat around was uncomfortable. 3) Drive to the NP entrance took about 30 minutes, and on two days we left at 5:00am (before sunset). 4) Linda made an effort to make us feel welcome. We felt as if we were staying at someone’s little house in a canyon. The kitchenette was fully stuffed: pots, pans, utensils, a cutting board, a dish soap, an electric stove (2 rings), a microwave, small size fridge (no freezer), a coffee maker. The bathroom was clean, towels were provided but keep in mind to bring your own soap and shampoo. It makes sense since we have different preferences. There was an access to a coal-grill. 5) We’ll remember our evening conversations and with other guests who stayed next door. Great stay!

If you’re looking for an off the grid stay this is the place. Tough to get a signal sometimes, but it was doable. TV was sketchy, but I didn’t go there for that. Halfway between Estes and Loveland, so that was perfect for me. Great view of the Big Thompson River. Very relaxing sitting beside the water.

Loved my stay there! Stayed in the bird room and it was more than enough for a solo Traveller. The water flowing from the river outside made it even better especially at night when sleepy. Will come back the next time I’m heading to RMNP!
