Probably won’t stay here again. Room was extremely basic, bed was ok. Wi-Fi was horrible. Dirty fork and random cooler outside our room. Grounds need maintenance. Nowhere really for a dog to do their business. Parking lot was hard to maneuver. Had to flush toilet twice each time. My diet cokes exploded in fridge since it was set to frozen. Love Grand Lake but Spirit Lodge is a better option.

Big Horn was very conveniently located in the main area of Grand Lake Town. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was only there for one night, but I would stay there again if I came back to Grand Lake. No frills, which. is fine for me.

Just a dated property, nothing bad and only stayed one night on our way to Estes Park. Loved the little town and rented a boat for couple hours and that was plenty for a cool September morning.

We were very disappointed with this stay. Overall the place was run down and not clean. It said no smoking but our room had obviously been a smoking room at some point. The price was definitely high for the overall experience.

Very good but be prepared to unplug

My stay was a good one. This lodge is conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Grand Lake. Unfortunately, the WiFi was extremely unreliable (even the one with the EXT on it). Its location tucked up against a hill made cell service dicey as well. Otherwise, very comfortable and clean! Never saw or spoke to any staff but I was taken care of.

Disappointed!

The pictures on Hotels.com must have been taken awhile ago because they were nothing like the reality of the condition of the place. No pretty hanging pots with gorgeous flowers just a wheelbarrow full of old dirt and what was left of flowers (not recently planted), and an old paint stir stick. Check-in was easy but the front office no longer resembles the photos on the website. I wish I would have taken some pictures to post here. Room smelled musty. The bed looked more like a full size than the queen we thought we were getting. Plus, Grand Lake, at this time of year, is dead. There were quite a few tourists but many of the restaurants were operating on limited hours. Nothing much to do there.

Decent independent motel needing a little work

The staff was friendly and very accommodating. The rooms are nice an appear to be recently renovated. New bathrooms, rugs, everything. That’s the good news. The bad news is they are in serious need of a heating technician. The first room was so hot I couldn’t not stay and the thermostat did not work. I notice other rooms were using their AC presumably to lower temps from hot water heat. Next room upstairs had a working thermostat with a sluggish heating system. Secondly the wifi did not work in the upstairs room. They need to fix that…..bring in the techies. That’s a big deal. Hate to give them a 3 but they need to get it together.
