An abundance of shade at most of the campsites throughout the day. Beautiful old growth pines and aspen trees. Great hiking nearby. Just outside of town, probably five minutes away driving.

The first night we showed up in Ouray, every hotel was booked and every campground was full. We talked to Steve, the camp host, to see if there were any openings For the rest of the week and much to our surprise, someone had just canceled and we were able to get their spot! Such a blessing! The bathrooms are clean, the views are gorgeous, and the spots are the perfect size. The spots do book up very fast, so plan ahead!

I want to start by saying this is the only park in the town and it offers tons of amenities. Pool,…read moremultiple jungle gym/playgrounds, soccer field, river to fish, baseball fields and tons of areas to hang out and relax while enjoying the beautiful scenery. The reason for our visit was a baseball tournament and sadly we were quite disappointed by the fields. For being such an expensive and historic town, the fields were amongst the poorest we have seen. There is no actual fence to specify the outfield (on one field), no dugout for the players (it's a park bench) with no covering, infield is all dirt and the backstop is maybe 5 feet from home plate. The park itself is beautiful and has plenty to do and offer other than baseball fields.

We had an excellent stay at the Camel's Garden Hotel…read more While it is an older hotel, you can't beat the location. It is located right next to the gondola. It does appear they may have renovated the downstairs common area. There is plenty of lounge seating, a fireplace and light oks like you can host a small gathering. We walked in and the front desk clerk who worked Wednesday was very friendly and even walked the luggage cart down to the garage for us. There is an underground garage that has shared space with the hotel condos. But it is $20 a day to park. I'm not sure if there is an alternative space outside to park overnight. The king room was very spacious and has a fireplace. Our friends stayed in the queen size room which was much smaller and no fireplace. There is plenty of seating in the room and has a large bathroom, wardrobe closet, 2 dressers and dining table. There is a large tv but unfortunately the WiFi is a bit sketchy so we could watch much tv. We even had a small balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Pillows not so much. Plenty of linens. There is a ski valet which is open from 8:30am to 4:30pm which is so nice to have available. We came down the hill late one afternoon and left our equipment outside the valet room. They were safe and sound inside the valet the next day. We had the nicest ski valets taking care of us, Jake and Miller. The hotel provides a free continental breakfast from 7:30am to 9:30am. Bagels & salmon, toast, fruit, yogurt, juice and coffee. The breakfast staff were very friendly. There is a nice pool and jacuzzi with views. A bar/restaurant is attached to the hotel which is convenient. Clearly a locals favorite. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Telluride.

Nice furniture and ambiance with the fireplace and various seating options. For the price this is one of the best deals in town. While it's by no means a modern hotel or resort, and is in fact a bit more on the basic side and a little outdated, you can't beat the location right next to the main Telluride lift and being right in downtown Telluride. I prefer staying here over Mountain Village as things shut down much earlier out that way. If I could have only a couple small suggestions it would be to see how they can get the rooms to not warm up so quickly (it was 10 degrees outside and I had the heat set to 64 and it kept going up to around 70 so I had to open a window). Then it was hard keeping a consistent temperature and I had to get up a couple of times during the night. The television steaming is very inconsistent and buffers or turns off for a few seconds, every few minutes. They also need refrigerators in the room. The beds are very comfortable but the pillows are mediocre. The giant tub is awesome as is the overall size of the room. The hot tub area just wasn't too appealing as the jets weren't strong enough and to get any jets you had to sit out of the tub with only half of your body submerged. It was awkward. Big hot tub but poor design. Needs to be a bit hotter and needs actual jets for both the low back and calves. I would recommend Camel's Garden Hotel to the middle to upper middle income skier who appreciates a great location and an ok experience. If you are fancy or rich then look at one of the boutique properties elsewhere.

Waterfalls , hiking trails , shopping, off road trails , dog park , water park ... and that's not even it ! For such a small town I'm impressed ! The hotel we picked is nice , not super luxurious but quaint . Friendly , helpful staff . They have a swing to sit on at the top of their hot springs tubs . I saw a lot of complaints about their hot tubs but there was a staff of people cleaning them today and some of them looked " slimier" than others , those looked like the ones most used . Up top were the best ones , but slippery getting in so be careful ! They have breakfast in the morning with eggs, sausage , bacon , waffles etc . We didn't go until after 9am and yes , they still had food and more coming out . Only complaint is that we have dogs ( there is a $30 person per night fee ) and had to stay on bottom floor .. the problem was that you could hear through the walls the people walking above you and to the side of you. ( I think the lady next to us was being extra loud when talking . However we did not get woken up by our neighbors so maybe just a one off ... anyways I would stay here again . Comfy bed , hot, hot showers .. iron., hair dryers .. coffee maker . You have to visit Ouray , Colorado at some point in your life!

We were incredibly lucky to find this property just a few days before our trip. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the location is perfect: close enough to walk into town, yet far enough to enjoy peaceful seclusion and mountain quiet. The front desk staff were genuinely kind, helpful, and made us feel immediately welcome. We can't wait to come back and will absolutely be choosing to stay here again. While exploring downtown, we checked out a few other hotels, and it only made us even happier with our choice. This place truly stood out in every way.

I even told our kids, "dad did this to be nice and spontaneous, so even if it's bad, just be grateful and act happy". I wasn't sure what to think at first, it definitely had character at first impression, but it could go either way once you get into the rooms (I mean, we've had some spontaneous hotel experiences that did not turn out so great). I was so pleasantly surprised when we got to the room- the beds were huge and SO COMFORTABLE (even the soft pillows which are hard to find in hotels)! The beds were so comfortable that I chose to turn in early because I just wanted a good night sleep in a soft, comfy bed that I could mold into. The rooms were spacious and immaculate, housekeeping and maintenance deserve a shout out because I'm PICKY and opted to shower without my shower shoes! Rooms were decorated adorably and the balcony overlooking the river was a treat! Breakfast was basic with hardboiled eggs and toast being my only personal option, but they also had sweets, Bagels, frozen burritos, cereal, etc. We would Definitely stay here again, and I highly recommend it to you High maintenance diva's is out there.

The views at Mountain Lodge are spectacular. This is the most beautiful place in Colorado…read more We came for a wedding, so we were able to enjoy the lodging, and the event side of the lodge. I love this property but it's overpriced for what you get and the rooms are definitely dated. They need to update the step in tubs and get rid of all of them and do walk-in showers. The room was so expensive and soooo tiny. The bed sagged and was not comfortable for two people. The worst part is the mandatory valet parking. You have no choice but to leave your car. That wouldn't normally be a problem, but since this property is built on the side of a mountain, all of the rooms are down the hill from check-in. They require you to use the Bellman, which I was grateful for, but it was a hassle when you just needed to grab one more thing out of your car, it took 20 minutes for them to bring your car back around. This was also a burden for my senior citizen mother who is having a really hard time walking up the hill, not only because of the steepness, but because of the high elevation. They really need to have golf carts to shuttle people up and down through the corridor of the property. It took forever to get our car anytime we needed it. I understand that parking is limited, but they should make special concessions when someone has a handicap, they should allow you to have your car parked at your building. For the positives, we enjoyed breakfast and a plated dinner for a wedding reception. The food was absolutely fantastic at both meals! For the wedding dinner, we had mashed potatoes and chicken, and the mashed potatoes tasted just like grandmas, perfectly seasoned, and so incredibly smooth. Hats off to the chef at the lodge! They also provide a complementary shuttle to the gondola which was much appreciated. I would stay here again, but I would definitely consider other properties until they renovate and update and get new beds!

We had a king accessible room so it was probably a little different from the regular rooms. It was spacious but one of the lights wasn't working so we had to drag a lamp over to the table area. There was a microwave and good size fridge and a small, pod coffee maker on the dresser. IMO the coffee was pretty good. Our couch also pulled out into a bed. They had coffee/tea in the lobby and passed out brown bag breakfasts in the morning. Our bathroom could have used some counter space but there wasn't any. The shower was tiny but did have a bench and grab bars. The whole thing was porta-potty sized and only had a hand held sprayer with very weak water pressure, but it was clean. They did provide bar soap and had shampoo and body wash dispensers in the shower. The whole room was pretty clean and almost bug free - which for Colorado mountain towns says a lot. It was showing some wear but it was nice to have the air conditioning unit even if it was noisy and didn't work very well. There was also a portable floor fan in the small closet along with a luggage stand and bench for the shower. If someone needs an accessible room this one was very complete. I chatted with John, the owner, a couple of times and he is very nice and pretty mellow. His daughter Laura is also very friendly and sweet. Really the biggest issue we had was lack of maid service. When I went to ask about clean towels, John told me to put our used ones on the chair outside our door. We did that the next day at 7am, got back to the room about 3:30pm and the used towels were gone but there were no new ones. I went to the lobby and got towels and when we left for dinner there was a stack of clean towels on the chair. No one ever emptied our trash or even checked the room the whole week. It wasn't that we needed much but the website and handout we received both stated they had daily maid service. For $250/night I would have expected better communication. I did really enjoy the firepit area and hot tubs and we were able to have friends over one evening to socialize on the patio. I do recommend The River's Edge but it's important to clarify expectations on what's included.

Spent 2 nights here and although the room is small, it was just me, and I didn't need much. Very…read morecozy and comfortable corner room with awesome views. John was very nice and accommodating. Beautiful property that is right on the river. I would definitely come back!
