This was a sweet place to stay while we explored the Rocky Mountain NP. Nicely decorated, sweet little kitchen, great shower and bathroom. Nice location. Very comfortable. We loved it! Just be aware that the photo that is used to represent this lodge is nothing that we saw. Instead, it was shed row style of 3 or so rooms. We had a bit of difficulty making sure we had the correct place as there is NO signage. We had to ask a helpful store worker across the street (thankfully it was still open) and she said 'it's all online'. Service is sketchy but luckily I got the email with the complete instructions on which room and with the code to access the room,

This place was perfect for what we needed! It is tucked away surrounded by the beauty of the area. Comfortable full beds, sitting couch, wonderful shower that doubles as a steam room. There is a gas station/convenience store across the street, burger place too. A little up the road in a "hole in the wall" cafe that was recommended to us for breakfast, and it was great! This place was situation perfectly between Estes Park and Lyons. We will definitely be back again whenever we get back to the area to visit.

My stay at Ferncliff was far behind my expectations. There is a small store across the street with basics which was super convenient instead driving all the way to Estes Park or Lyons. The best part of all was the communication and helpfulness of the host. I rarely write reviews but this stay was exceptional!

The mount meeker unit exceeded my expectations. It's a cute little king size bed unit with a kitchenette. The fact that they had plates and bowels as well as seasonings was a major plus. Even had a little cutting board and silverware. The steam shower is probably my favorite feature for the whole unit. The back patio had a few chairs which was nice. There wasn't any cushion so it wasnt really comfy but still convenient. The was a mountain behind the property which was a beautiful view. They have a little convenient store directly across the street which was nice. The wifi was very helpful considering there is no cell service. The only thing that was not great was the hot tub. It was dirty and therefore was not able to be enjoyed. Otherwise i enjoyed my stay and would definitely return.

Every thing was great. My wife also loved it. I have two observations. 1. we couldn't get the door to lock when we left for dinner. 2. we are both 76. The tub area needs grab bars.

Perfect mountain getaway

Very cozy. Perfect for that little mountain getaway. Short drive from Estes Park and the drive is absolutely stunning. The steam shower felt AMAZING after walking around in the snowy mountains all day. The kitchenette is adorable and perfect for quick meals. Rooms are very clean. The rooms come with little fans and heaters so my husband and I slept so comfortably.

This place is a gem. Feels remote but still has the convenience of a market, right across the street, liquor store and couple restaurants within a half mile. Loved the cabin and had the comfort and amenities that me, my wife and daughters use everyday!!

Great place to stay outside of town, yet close enough to enjoy RMNP and Estes Park with a 20 mins drive. Cabin was super clean and beds were comfortable. I'd suggest buying wood & matches for fireplace and stop at the store in town for groceries or maybe costco before you head up to Estes Park. The cabin has items to use for cooking, theres a fridge/micro/oven and outside bbq.Owner was very responsive when I had questions. Id recommend this place to other visitor's:)

Was staying at the Mount Meeker (#2) for a nearby wedding. We really enjoyed the cottage and the area surrounding. Our only suggestions would be to 1) provide a fold-up table to play games and eat and 2) provide a folding luggage rack to place a suitcase on. Other than the hat it was really enjoyable and is now on our permanent list of places to book.

We had a recent stay at one of the cabins (Kozy cabin) for 2 nights. The place is horrible, old, dirty, small, you can literally reach the ceiling since it’s so low. No cell phone signal since it’s in the middle of nowhere. Cockroach in the kitchen sink, bed sheets have cockroach feces. More importantly, they don’t have hot water in the shower, and water pressure is extremely low in the bathroom and kitchen. When we found out we had no hot water, they basically told us they can’t do anything about it. Next day around 11am, they (a guy named Tyler) came and offered us free stay given the water issue, however, refused to honor his word after we left. Don’t get fooled by the pictures they have, the whole place and management is a mess.

Lovely Lodge

Great location if you are interested in being remote and away from the touristy area. The amenities provided are great! The room and facility are clean and comfortable and the steam shower plus community hot tub helps after a long day of hiking.

Beautiful and quaint little lodge!

We highly recommend staying at the Ferncliff Lodge! We stayed in one of the studio suites, which was a lovely, freshly renovated room. Everything was very inviting and comfortable! We also loved the quaint location, which is about 30 minutes from Estes Park! The staff was wonderful, giving very specific directions on how to get there as well as leaving detailed instructions for all of the amenities! Overall, we loved our stay and would love to come back!

Couldn’t be much better. 9/10

We enjoyed our stay. Good price. Great shower and room. Enjoyed the hot tub! Location has pros and cons. The isolation is very nice, but we did not plan on having no cell service at all. However, Wi-F was provided, so it wasn’t a major issue. The amenities surrounding the area are limited. We went to the “grill guy” restaurant and had a very poor experience. Those cons are the only reason it’s not 5 stars. As far as what the owners could do to make it better, not much. Maybe just a heads up about no cell service and some info about nearby amenities.
