Cherri and Dale, the owners, are exceptionally nice and caring hosts of this fun, out-of-the-way lodging in an exceptionally nifty little town. Or, if you're just looking for a shower or a laundromat or a fully-stocked hardware and fishing equipment store, this is also the place.

I loved the laidback, quiet, beautiful small town and surroundings. I loved my daily drive to Paonia where I was taking a course at SEI. I loved the Black Canyon of the Gunnison and the ranches in the region and Needle Rock. I enjoyed coffee at Lazy J every morning and I enjoyed the vibes at North Fork Boardwalk. I enjoyed talking to the host, Cherrie.

Very unique hotel in the middle of CO. Close to Gunnison National Park upper rim. Across street from musician Joe Cocker burial site. Staff was very nice and helpful with giving interesting ideas to see and do. Away from the noise and busel of city life. A simple gem.

This is a quaint little place to stay. No frills, your room is above the feed store. I absolutely loved it. There are two restaurants that are a 2 minute walk from your room. There are also a few little stores for local crafts and souvenirs. It is about a 4 mile drive to Needle Rock and about 20 minutes to get to Black Canyon of the Gunnerson North Rim drive.
