Mid February someone from the…read morehotel called to say they were remodeling in the lobby and offered us a discount on our room. They assured us it would not affect our room, only the lobby. We accepted their offer. Today, March 2, they called to say they were behind on their remodeling and could not accommodate us. They promptly, and quite unexpectedly, cancelled our booking. Fortunately we were able to get a room at the Durango Lodge, a place we have stayed at many times before, and for a lot less money. We had been looking forward to the boutique experience at the Rochester, but with they way this was handled we will never book there again.

This was slightly confusing upon our arrival, but we figured it out. Upon our arrival (those of us who are on time), were greeted by Amber! She caught onto our family banter quickly and went through the Do's & Don'ts. There were 50 of us, so we certainly needed this. The Lodge is spacious and multiple beautiful views. I watched the sunrise over the mountains on the spa balcony every morning. A great way to prepare yourself for the chaos of a family reunion, and just Be for a moment! The Lodge had plenty of space for eating together, games and we even put on a talent show! The game room and dining area were the most used. We had ages from 4-months to old AF, and everyone enjoyed themselves. The Lodge is in close proximity to Purgatory, Bears Ranch (horseback riding), trails, water leisure, and a local bar, The Nugget. This was a great unforgettable reunion! Thank you for having us!!!
