Mike's inn is perched on the banks of a rushing creek (and the lawn out back along the creek is pure paradise), and when you stay here, you feel welcome enough to feel like family, without all the social obligations that come with staying with family. Mike is a local legend, everyone knows him. He is the driving force behind the re-opening of the ski resort in Cuchara, and has been in the ski business his whole professional life. He is a gracious, kind host...quiet and reserved, but is happy to chat if you engage him. He's a SUPERB cook (and this is coming from a chef!), and his breakfasts are truly outstanding. The place is supremely dog friendly, with no extra charge for a pet. (A huge savings if you're staying a week.) Yes...this is an older home, converted to an inn. (Each suite has a full kitchen.) This is not The W. Don't come expecting that. We found our suite to be twice the size we expected, supremely comfy, and the price was spot-on for such a wonderful stay with breakfast every day, and an unlimited source of information about the area. Without question, we will be back!

Newly remodeled with a conference room, large central kitchen, and lounge area with big screen TV. The 2-bedroom suites were wonderful.

The HVAC system worked perfectly with modern climate controls. What a bonus to have the Canary brewpub directly downstairs. Good brews and cocktails with a limited menu of excellent food. If you are looking for lodging in Walsenburg, don't miss the opportunity of staying at The Lofts.

INTIMIDATING Dog Policy…read more I understand - some previous visitors felt "intimidated" by a 50+ pound Dog so now the rest of us can't stay here as large Dogs aren't allowed. So unfortunate. Yellow Pine Ranch is where I learned about nature in the 1980s: "Cocklebur" the donkey who lived in the grassy field outside our cabin - he happily ate our hand-fed carrots. Horseback riding with my ol' friend "Taco," the great white horse with brown spots. And hummingbirds that would happily sit on your finger. My Senior Retrievers have traveled to Italy, the Texas Coast, and are possibly more well-behaved than some humans. It saddens my heart that a place nestled in what my Dad called "God's Country" doesn't welcome God's creatures. The management here could benefit from a reality check. So I don't meet their reservation requirements. I'm fine with that. SPECIAL NOTE ~ When I spoke to Diane today she could have *not noticed less* when I told her my family stayed here at Yellow Pines 40 years ago. How sad that is.

They have a staff that plate your hot food and the rest is open to all. Keeps everything tidy and less people touching the food.

Hotel was clean, employees were nice, rooms were clean AND nice. What's more to say? The main things in a room are always shower pressure, airflow/AC/heat and tidiness. And look at that! All three here excelled! The restaurant downstairs was also a great place to order food to go and go back into the room to hibernate awhile and watch some trash tv. I will say though, the area around is pretty meh to walk around in. Great food choices for a small area, but I probably wouldn't walk around by myself if I were staying here alone. Great place to stay and highly recommend you to splurge a bit and stay here.
