Very good location in the park. It’s definitely more “cabin-like” and basic. It was nice to have the restaurant there with incredible views and good food. The room rate was very affordable.

We loved this hotel, in spite of the fact that it is in need of renovations. They seem to need more employees. The linens were not completely clean and we could hear EVERY word the guests in next room spoke. It is a beautiful spot, and staff was friendly. I hope the needed renovations and repairs are done.

We loved the Far View Lodge! We had a room with a view and the sunset was amazing. Clean room that kept with the Mesa Verde theme. If you are going to Mesa Verde, I would definitely recommend staying here! Shaves about 40 mins off your drive time to the hikes and cliff dwelling tours.

It was a beautiful property, with wild horses that were outside our patio when we woke up. The view was to die for. Our fan in our bathroom didn’t work, but other than that for the area I would hook it again.
