Had a great long weekend at Discovery Lodge, the view was fantastic, staff was extremely friendly!!! The rooms are very clean and cozy. A great place for all who are traveling with their dogs, I never leave my dogs at home and it is nice to know there is a place that welcomes the dogs as much as they do... More

My friend and I had a wonderful time at the Discovery Lodge. We found the staff to be exceptionally friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to be accommodating. The twin queen beds were very cozy. It was great to sit in the hot tub after hiking all day and look out at the surrounding vistas. It was... More

I recently stayed at the Aspen Lodge and found it a perfect place to stay while visiting Estes Park. The lodge has incredible views and the grounds have the perfect feeling of being in the beautiful Colorado mountains. A little piece of heaven....... My room was clean and neat with a beautiful view of Long's Peak. I always worry if... More

We had looked all over town for a moderate, clean place to stay and we were traveling w/ our family dog. We weren't looking for a room for animals cause he was quite content to sleep in the car at night. Places we stopped in Estes Park to inquire were almost rude to even think of having a dog on...

We recently visited Estes Park on a cold and rainy May 2012 visit. The location was great, there were elk roaming around during our visit. It was overall clean. The location was great. Some of the other lodging requires a 2 night stay during May, but this did not, which was good since we were just passing thru. The problems... More

I picked Discovery Lodge based on their rates and Trip Advisor reviews, and was not disappointed!! We had a two-queen room with a balcony - it was great! The location in Estes Park was fantastic, the rooms were really clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was very nice! We could hear occasional talking through the walls or outside,... More

Great price for an incredible view of the mountains out your front window while you sit and drink your coffee at your table. The windows in the old section are V shaped offering great views. Nice lodge-pole furniture. I like the location, quiet, but not far from things. More

We stay at the Discovery Lodge 2-4 times a year. We are headed back in July and I cannot wait to get back to such a relaxing place. The views are amazing, along with the service. The closeness to town, the golf course and walking trail are priceless. Would recommend this place a million times over!! More
