Mount Princeton Hot Springs Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This place is great. The pools are great, the ambiance is relaxing yet fun. Great food, service, location. Like a mountain paradise."

Surf Hotel & Chateau

10/10 Excellent

"We came through to Crested Butte with not many expectations. We got in late, around 9, after driving 12 hours and looked like heethans. We came in starving and asked if we were appropriate enough to grab a bite and a drink. The entire staff was incredible and welcoming. Our bartender was pretty new, but confident in all he did and personable to the nines. I think it was David? Anyway, espresso martini and whatever my husband had were incredible, as was the homemade lasagna and gnocchi! It literally started our trip to be amazing. In the morning I came down to the gorgeous mineral pool and had some time and didn’t want to leave. Thanks so much for such a wonderful stay! Highly recommend!"

"Me and my wife rented the cabin last August of 2025 and got married in salida. We stayed the last week of July 2026 for our honeymoon.I cannot thank our hosts enough for having us.It was a very romantic stay.And as a couple that like OHV Riding,It was nice Riding on the mountain pass in our RZR 50" trail over Hancock pass to pitkin for a nice lunch.And on a side note, It irrates me about negative,untruthful recent reviews.Please read and understand what is said about bringing dogs,extra guests,etc, and simple rules as a guest that you are.The hosts are very nice people and just ask for simple respect.Just a beautiful place for a kansas couple to get away from the hustle and bustle of big city living."

Colorado Basecamps

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a great place to stay. The staff was wonderful, had a small issue with our picnic table but they were there and fixed it right away. They were very accommodating with our requests. The bathrooms were very clean and stocked with anything you may have forgotten. The made to order breakfast was awesome and delicious. Our grandkids loved the s’mores nightly. Would definitely stay here again."

Buffalo Peaks B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay met all our expectations: peaceful location, inviting and welcoming host, beautiful lodge, amazing breakfasts! We were celebrating a milestone anniversary and desired to be in a special and unique setting; our hopes were exceeded! This is also a good base if you want to explore nearby historic towns, ghost towns, mountains and fun activities such as hiking, biking, rafting."

Rustic Log Cabin on 3 Elk Creek with views of the Collegiate Range

10/10 Excellent

"Our family absolutely loved this house! It has the perfect layout for larger groups (we had 4 adults and 5 kids). Every morning we enjoyed coffee on the deck with stunning views of Princeton. Close to town and easily accessible to so much. I would come back to this house in BV any time! You will not be disappointed."
