Lyons, Colorado
Our expansive 2400 sq ft cabin is built into the hillside next to the Middle St. Vrain River. This former lodge (c. 1920) is historic, but has many modern amenities like fast Wifi, Verizon Cell Extender, Apple TV, etc.. You have your own entry, patio and yard. In late spring, summer and early fall have coffee on the front patio and listen to the roaring river. In the Fall, watch the Aspen trees turn bright colors. In the Winter, watch the snow gently fall while being cozy in front of the fire.
The rustic Riverside Mountain Lodge Retreat is the main level suite in a two suite lodge. The upper level suite is called the Riverside Lodge - Relaxation in a Historic Setting. Each suite has it's own private entrance. You can also book the entire property under the name Riverside Lodge - Upper and Lower Lodge Combined.
The closest small markets by car are in Ferncliff at 12 minutes away and downtown Lyons at 15 minutes away. You can find more amenities in Boulder, Longmont, Estes Park and Nederland each at around 30 minutes away. Boulder and Longmont are your best bets for big box stores, Estes Park and Nederland are smaller mountain towns, but have good sized grocery stores and other amenities.
The lodge is across the street from the river, but you can walk along the river on the road and access the river by the county owned bridges (one bridge is right by the lodge).
Parking - two cars are allowed as there is only two parking spaces for this suite on the property. Please park only on the gravel, on the right side of the concrete pad.
The rooms are side by side and accessed through french doors. There is a king sized bed in one room and a queen and twin sized bed in the other room. The bedrooms are accessed from the living room through custom built barn style sliding door.
The original wood floors and log built frame from 1920 is the part of the rustic charm of the Riverside Mountain Lodge Retreat. There are pictures, throughout the unit, showing how the space was used as a restaurant and gathering space for travelers and the local community. If you are looking for a more updated space though, look no further than the upper suite, named the Riverside Lodge - Relaxation in a Historic Setting.
We had a wonderful time staying at this charming lodge full of character. We felt like we stepped back in time in the lower level and thoroughly enjoyed the upper level! Listening to the river and birds sing while sitting outside were icing on the cake!
The proverbial mountain lodge. Rustic and natural. This is not a “white glove” kind of place, but rather hiking boots and cheeseburgers. All the tech works well. Internet, streaming, etc. setting is great. We actually saw a moose! Neighbor is not grumpy. I would definitely come back. Lyons is a great little town!
