It was quiet, ample parking, needed updating and replace the sealant in the bathroom which was partially missing, cracked, lots of mold. There was plenty of room to move around, very squeaky floor, kitchen well supplied, good bed.

Lovely family owned lodge run by caring and hardworking people that treat you like old friends. Rooms are rustic and very clean—just what I was looking for. My husband and I had a great experience and will stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

Perfect getaway for two
We loved staying here. The only downside was we had our pick of 2 rooms. We chose the one we wanted without thinking things through. We had the room that's right on the road. So we heard all the traffic. Everything was super clean and the person who checked us in was very nice. We plan on a return trip next year.

This was a great stay, very family oriented and made us feel at home. The only complant we have is we had to leave a day early due to a sickness where an er trip was taken & doctors recommended to leave the altitude. Despite the doctors recommendation & full day notice, the owners would not refund the remaining day.

Lodging close to town
Quiet convenient location about 2 blocks from main street. Walkable area with friendly accommodating owners. Lots of open space for children to play. Furnishings a bit outdated and need refurbished. Our suite offered full kitchen making it easy to cook meals if you prefer it. Comfy bed. Games available to use at the office. S’more three nights during summer. Gas grills available too. Very relaxing to sit and read a book on your front porch or st a swing.

Unfortunate.
It was not a horrible stay as the area was amazing but the owner acted as if we were a burden. It was obvious we were not welcome though he took our money just as everyone else’s. Even told me if I had of checked in directly and not through hotels.com he could of given me a discount. I hate to even post a review due to retaliation.

Cozy Little Place
Nice cozy family operated place, right downtown, so traffic is a problem sometimes. Generally we just walked everywhere except to Rocky Mountain National Park which required driving from anywhere anyway. Owner is a big Cubs fan, so if you want to be obnoxious wear Cardinals gear..... Seriously, highly recommend.

Great place to stay and make your headquarters.
What an awesome place. The cabin was very clean and had a comfortable bed in the bedroom, a living room and a large kitchen. The bathroom was spotless and the tub with shower worked great. The property is easy to get to and everything in the town of Estes Park is in walking distance. It is easy to get out and get to Rocky Mountain National Park without fighting downtown traffic. There is outdoor seating, BBQ grills, a firepit, hot tub and more. We love this place; the owners are very friendly and helpful and we want to return to visit them again!

Great little lodge close to downtown Estes
If you are looking for fancy, this isn't the place. If you are looking for a clean, efficient, friendly family atmosphere, and close to downtown with easy access to all the Estes Park activities, then the Misty Mountain Lodge is for you. Peter and his wife were very friendly and helpful, allowing an early check in and even offered pepper spray (for bears) and walking sticks in preparation for our hiking activities! We stayed in unit 3--again, nothing fancy but very clean, a newly remodeled sink and shower area, and a kitchenette which was nice to have. Our unit was close to the main road so it was a little loud with traffic, but other than that the Lodge is quiet and peaceful. We would stay here again and were very happy with our experience.

Good stay
Very welcoming and pleasant stay. The owner actually stopped by to let us know smores were being made around an outside fire. Easy walk to shopping, near a park & pretty stream with tiny trout. Bed was firm, good for me. No housekeeping. Small kitchen area with stove & fridge. The place has been there a while but well maintained. Had a deer just outside our door one morning.

Misty Mountain is a comfortable, down to earth place that treats you like family. My family and I travel a lot and this was the first time I have ever been comfortable just sitting around a fire, eating S'mores with total strangers and making new friends. That's what, owners, Peter and Ellen bring together.

Comfortable stay
We had the king suite so I don't know if the other units are like ours. Our unit was rustic but nice and very clean. The owners are very nice and eager to help when needed. The bed and pillows were comfortable. We appreciated the kitchen and had the utensils we needed to do our own cooking instead of going to a restaurant all the time. The Lodge is about 3 blocks from the business street and we enjoyed that because we could walk and not be concerned about parking the car.

Good value, walk to shops.
If you are looking for a woodsy '50's cabin feel, this is it. Just be prepared for no air conditioning, and air not too good for allergies. Also the bed was very firm, causing problems for our old bodies. If you are ok with these little details, you will enjoy your stay.

We stayed in unit 18 and were pleasantly surprised to find a kitchen and couch in the unit. We were also thrilled to learn there were two hot tubs on the property. The resort is even closer to shops and restaurants than expected - about two blocks away. We will surely return in the future!

Rustic Comfort and Old Fashioned Fun
The Misty Mountain Lodge is a throwback to a time when hotels did their own decorating, and the manager chatted with every guest. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed like family. There were s'mores around the fire pit, lawn games, chairs on the lawn, and even a rustic fountain tinkling throughout the night. The manager's family each made us feel welcome, and gave us tips on best paths and times that worked marvelously. Downtown Estes Park is a 2-block walk away, and there are good restaurants even closer than that. If you're looking for a luxury hotel, this isn't for you. If you want charm, grace, friendliness, and the kind of vacation you had as a kid, Misty Mountain Lodge is perfect!

Happy in the mountains
The owners of Misty Mountain Lodge were very friendly and hospitable, offering campfires and smores nightly. The buildings could use some updating but the interior of our cabin was nice and clean. The bed was also comfortable. There was no air conditioning in our cabin but fans were provided and it cooled down significantly at night. So sleeping was great!
