Thank you Paz for your generosity and for making it such a delightful stay. Hope we can return one day.

Are changes about Health benefits we come for? Are they for the People? The Cleanliness of the waters? Available to constant use of locals? Do they remember who has supported CHS through the years? Are they continuing what made it a great place for all? Are they considering its' history? * My stay was really delightful! Their employees are the best, from front desk to the pool man who is the most important one... the water keeper. They are learning! I am reminding them to think of their client base and not to forget us as they make changes in soaking and room rates. Tourists come and go...locals use the health benefits and come often if it is reasonably priced. Only one negative, I am very, very disappointed the low cost dorm areas are gone now. For those of us that travel here they were a hidden gem. Why were they not advertised for more usage? The previous owner made sure the property and waters were available to all, and that cost would not keep people from the healthy, sacred benefits found here. *I adore CHS and will expect it to get better and better as needed improvements are made. I will have to come less often due to prices, however I am staying positive as this beautiful place is a gift to us from the earth and extremely important to me. Let's take care of it, support it, and give positive feedback. Thank you, blessed caretakers of this place of peace, beauty and health. Brenda Helms

Not that knotty pine type of furnishings that you see in a lot of mountain hotels/lodges, it was sophisticated but still felt perfect for the mountains.

I'll bump it up to $$ since during the high season it's still reasonable but not as cheap as we got it for!

Sharon and Chuck are warm and welcoming and will go out of their way to make your stay in St Elmo memorable. St Elmo itself it worth the visit and takes you back to the glory days of the gold & silver boom and bust. The history and sheer preservation of the town are remarkable. The B&B accommodated our children (8 & 11) and put on a heck of a spread for breakfast and dinner. It was well worth the extra charge for lunch as it was also well made (and there isn't any other dining options for at least an hour drive away). They even provided us free chipmunk feed! Be aware, there is NO cellular service but guests will have access to WiFi. The building itself could easily be mistaken for a renovated hotel from the 1880's but you'd be wrong as it was constructed in 2002. The reclaimed wood, furniture, and features make it fit right in with the ghost town. The chipmunk village is a must-do for kids and kids at heart! The hikes and trails surrounding the area are fairly easy and there are even more hidden points of interest in the surrounding the valley. We stayed during Labor Day weekend so be aware of ATVs and 4x4's during the summer months. We would love to stay again!

A girlfriend and I visited the Ghost Town Guest House a couple of years back, and I'm just now…read morenoticing that it's not on Yelp! Not surprising, since it's out in the middle of a ghost town... We went up during the winter, just because. My understanding (speaking directly to Chuck and Sharon) is that they're open 24x7x365 for reservations - I just checked their website to confirm and it appears they're still going strong. During the cold months, the B&B is literally the only thing open, St Elmo is population: 2, plus whomever is staying there. That makes it incredibly cool, quiet, and just awesome. Snowmobilers and showshoers will show up and wander around during the daylight hours; otherwise it's just you and nature. If you dare brave the route, I actually do recommend the wintertime. Sharon is an amazing cook (pay the extra for all three meals!), and Chuck built the house himself. They used a ton of reclaimed woods and rustic materials; I would hate to detract from the beauty of the property (and the town) by attempting to describe it. I'll simply say that it's warm, friendly, and totally worth the trek. As wonderful a B&B as I've ever been. They even took us out on a snowshoe hike and told us a tremendous amount of history about St. Elmo, the mining operations that built and ruined the town, and all sorts of other interesting tidbits that make it a special place for them. It will be a special place for you too. Check out the website!

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and rented out the Teocalli King Room. The sheets and bathrobes were nice, and the stand-in shower was excellent. It was quite cozy with plenty of room, storage space, and amenities to make it as comfortable of a stay as possible. Not to mention the direct access to the hot tub was a plus, which was a great addition. The host, Chris, is a superb cook and prepares a high-quality breakfast every morning of a variety of delicacies. I'm not even a fan of eggs but his Southwestern frittata has made me a believer now. He's very attentive to allergies as well and will always do his best to accommodate. My wife has a severe gluten allergy and he was always sure to supply a substitute. The only other thing he hosted regularly was beer tastings at 5, which we were unable to attend due to our plans, but he does have a nice selection of brews stored for it. The views from the B&B are great and it's located just a short walk from Elk Ave, where you'll find all the main shops and restaurants. Even closer is the bus stop that'll take you up the mountain. Overall, I cannot recommend Purple Mountain B&B for your stay. For the price point, the amenities, and level of service you're getting, it can't be beat. Definitely staying here again when we come back some day.

We stayed in the Crested Butte room which was cozy and reasonably priced; also took the cruiser bikes for a spin around town that are provided for our use. We LOVED our stay and absolutely will return the next time we head to Crested Butte.

I found fireside online and it was by far the most affordable option in Breckenridge for a single night so I went for it in a two person dorm, and luckily I happened to be the only one in that room that night! The room was definitely snug but it was cozy and very comfortable and I slept very well. Finding the place was also very easy, they provide very clear instructions and there is plenty of parking at the church across the street (just mind their specific parking instructions and you won't have any trouble). Re: the interior: it's actually a very large place with two full baths and one half bath. I never even saw/heard another guest when I came but again it was late. The vibe was that it was a very comfy, chill place - they have soothing music playing over by the office door where the coffee/tea machines are, and there is a small kitchen and living room area. They had a real fire going in the living room area and there were games and books and lots of "things to do" brochures around, so truly it felt like being in a cozy cabin. I genuinely really loved that vibe. Not to mention it's quite close to the main road - you could easily walk but because it was raining heavily the night I came, I did drive all of 3 minutes to avoid walking 15 in the rain to the bar on Main Street I wanted to go to. They also sent me a text when i came in case i had questions, so they are available to help you. Overall - if you're coming and staying here for just a night or two and all you need is a bed/shower/safe space, this place is GREAT. Admittedly the rooms aren't big (at least mine wasn't), but again as a solo traveler it was fine. Would def rec to friends :)

Sturdy, grated outside steps lead to this suite, for safe access and for privacy. The location is unbeatable, just a 3-block walk to town and to all of the shops and restaurants. The "Free Ride" city bus stops in front of the Fireside Inn, and can take you to the Gondola and Breck Station, if you don't feel like making the 7-minute walk. [Tip: Epic Mountain Express shuttle vans from the airport can drop you directly at the Fireside Inn!] Our host Madi communicated beautifully before and during our visit. She and her family have put a lot of love and thought into making this a warm refuge from the cold and excitement that is Breckenridge.

We sat for 30 minutes after eating to visit (there was only a few others in the restaurant) and he walked right by our table and ignored us and our obviously finished plates. All this disappointment for $57.00. We will not be back and will be sure to tell all our friends between Leadville and Buena Vista. No wonder the place was empty on a Summer morning.

Figuring literally anything would be better than the spaghetti (with no sauce- that key ingredient was left at home) that we packed "just in case it rains" we were blown away by this place. The food was delicious and our family of four all left happily stuffed- we had the salmon, Parmesan chicken, and the kids split a burger. The food alone was worth a five star review but there just is something special about this hidden gem of a mountain restaurant. While eating we enjoyed the mountain/lake views and were charmed by the hummingbirds that stopped by to eat along with us. If you are in need of gluten free options, this place has plenty! Well worth a stop. Highly recommend. Two thumbs up. We've never ditched camping for a restaurant before but glad we did tonight!
