I talked to the front desk about options and they just told me to come back! I explained we live 9 hours away and won't be back. They just said..."Maybe the weather will change in a few hours".

A totally underwhelming ski experience combined with overwhelming douchy management - welcome to…read moreDMR. The mountain itself isn't bad, but there are waaaaay better ski resorts in the area. The runs aren't that great, but hey - at least you can ski here. My main problem with this resort is with the owners / management. They recently started to offer "local discount days", which is awesome, but they attach strings to it. You HAVE to present a coupon from the newspaper for EACH person buying a ticket... So, you can be from out of town, present the coupon, and get the discount, which I liked since I'm from Texas. However, my friends who were local did not have the coupon, but had driver's licenses and Fort Lewis College student Id's and they were refused the local price. One of my friends even had her electric bill, and they still refused to give her the discount. Super lame. I won't be returned to this hill.

I love the hot spring pool. I grew up going to this pool starting in the 1980s and up till now so…read moreI've seen it change a lot of ways. First change was the way they reconstructed the pool itself which is fine and it's still a hot Springs pool, which is wonderful. The view is amazing just to sit back relax and see the mountains surrounding you is like none other. However, their price has gone up since the 1980s. I believe we paid three or five dollars to get in now it's $30 per person for a day. They don't provide towels but they'll sell you a towel for $10 they don't provide lockers, but you can rent one for $.50 Like I said, I love the Hot Springs pool but it's expensive that's the worst thing I can say about it will I go again, ... 100% But bring $$.

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!

Plenty of fun runs, and a decent amount of high speed lifts. The layout is a bit funky with some solid traversing and long runouts but overall still a good spot. We stayed in the village. Not much food that I know of in the village so we are down in the town of Durango. Had free days from a season pass from a partner resort so used those to my advantage. Great views and a pretty drive! In the words of the terminator, "I'll be back."

So much more to do here than the last time we came here. The all day pass is a good deal for summer…read moreactivities (we didn't choose this option) but the lines are long for almost everything. Didn't try the zipline, but didn't seem worth it based on the length. The inferno mountain coaster is an amazing addition, although we waited in line for 45 min for it. (Note that dogsledding tours are also offered in the summer as well. You just have to ask about it). The alpine slide has changed dramatically in the past few years (we used to be able to get buy one get one coupons for 5 bucks here, but now that tickets are $15 each for a single ride... that's a different story). Worth spending an afternoon here

I had an awesome time visiting box canyon waterfall while in Ouray! I came with my husband and…read moretoddler children. They absolutely loved it! Great for all ages. The waterfall was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. It was super loud inside of the canon which made it all the more exciting. Check out both the lower and upper box canon falls trails. The lower falls trail gets very close to the waterfall, we were getting wet from the spray we were so close. The upper trail has a great view of Ouray and a fun bridge to cross that leads into a tunnel. It is $7 for each adult, but super seniors, military, and children under 4 are free! No dogs allowed in the park. I don't think the dogs would want to come anyway with the metal bridges and aggressively loud waterfall. If you are in Ouray in the summertime this needs to be on your itinerary!

Truly magnificent. The lower trail is easy for all levels, it has stable footing and minimal…read moreelevation changes, yet still offers beautiful views of the creek, and waterfalls along steel walkways and short trail. There are also stairs to near bottom of the waterfall. The high bridge trail is much more challenging, although one can opt to only climb the stair portion for a better view of Ouray and a little cardio. At the top of the stairs there is a small shelter, if you're feeling the altitude at this point it's a good idea not to continue further, as the trail continues to climb and there are no stairs/structure. There is a cable above the trail in sections for stability, and cables below some sections for safety. I'd guess the top of the stairs is a little less than half way to the high bridge. The bridge is a very sturdy structure, over a steep narrow gorge, the views of Box Cañon, the creek, waterfall, and town below are breathtaking. There is a hallway-like tunnel on the far side of the bridge, which is part of the perimeter trail. It's low in some spots but walkable, and offers some shade and cooling after the climb. The trail was drub when we went, it would be significantly more challenging/difficult with any moisture or icy conditions.

A river meanders nearby as well as an easy walk to an incredible waterfall on property. Eric is the heart of this place (he cares for it as his own and is so detail oriented)(Emily is new and petty fantastic too). Special shout out to Holly (she made us feel so so welcome), Kelly. Alice, and John were fantastic as well. But all the staff are fantastic! This year especially. We've been several times and this was by far our favorite staff experience. Soaking under the stars in the hot springs is incredible as are the communal dinners. The road to get here can be a bit bumpy but once you arrive you quickly see it was all very well worth it. There is something incredibly special about Dunton.

No cell service within an hour of the property. The staff are sooo welcoming and helpful! Service is one of the best. The all inclusive food and drinks is worth the price of the room! Three meals a day is an experience of its own. We planned our daily activities according to meal time. Love that they have daily group activities. We participated in snowshoeing and it was so much fun. They have all the winter gears for guests to borrow so, don't worry if you didn't pack it all. We stayed in the Echo room, which is the smallest and cheapest. The bed is sooo comfy that we just stayed in bed majority of the time so the size of the room didn't matter. In the winter, Echo room guest uses the steam shower located in the bathhouse to shower. All three hot springs were amazing. We pacifically chose this property for their hot springs and it did not disappoint. The library was well kept, cozy, and organized. -Wi-Fi is spotty. Works here and there, and disconnect. - If you want lunch packed Togo on your last day, gotta tell them I'm advance like at check in. - Laundry service is complimentary, but they ask for 24hr turnover. Ours were returned same day after dinner.

It's hard to put into words, the way I feel about this place, but I'll try…read more We specifically booked this place because of the history. And the cabin in particular that is built upon Chief Ouray's hunting adobe. We absolutely loved the cabin. It was private and primative, but had everything we needed. And to learn that it was built in 1902 was even better. It does have a comfy bedroom, it is not a studio. And a kitchenette with a fridge and a stove, a microwave and mostly fully stocked. A decent shower and lots of heaters with a wood burning stove. We would stay here again in a second. It was neat waking up to the wild turkeys and driving up and down the hill in the ice. The jeep made it really easy. We also booked the sunroom and while I do love staying in the lodge, because of its convenience, we much prefer the cabin. The sun room is almost all windows, and it is literally built on top of the vapor cave with the rock coming through one wall. It's very cozy too, and has a king bed. That part is great! There is no kitchenette in here though, but the front desk clerk was kind enough to help us with some items we needed to make some sandwiches. I'll tell you the most difficult part is this: The entitlement of folks who have no concept of respect. Whether it be berating the staff or talking loudly and obnoxiously while soaking. If someone doesn't know hot springs etiquette, they should learn. It's a place of retreat, rest and relaxation. It's also a sacred native site. It deserves respect. Don't come here if you're looking to be loud and obnoxious. You don't know how many times I watched people walk away from soaking, because of idle drunk gossipy talk... The times where we have been mostly alone, are just epic and I'm truly grateful for that. It has been one of the best weeks just becoming one with nature and the earth, honoring the sacred. There really are no more words except this... For all the negative reviews around social media or online, that's great keep it up. The rest of us would like this little gem kept a secret. Thanks

A giant scam. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!…read more In short, I had a reservation. Mudslides closed the roads to Ouray just prior to my arrival. I confirmed the closed roads with the Colorado Department of Transportation. The hotel still refused to refund my money despite being unable to get there. I offered to change my reservations to 2-3 weeks later since I would return to Colorado. The hotel refused to refund my money. The hotel never provided a name of anyone to discuss. I only could converse via email to a generic hotel email. I am still fighting to get back my $1,000. Hotel doesn't care as long as they have my money. Pathetic. They refused to discuss over phone. Then they sent a generic email asking how my stay was. Insult to injury. DO NOT EVER BOOK THIS HOTEL.
