Clean and comfortable at a good price. Would be nice if the hut tub was accessible late night because that’s when a lot of people wind down. Other than that place is perfect.

Our stay was perfect! The view, staff, and everything was awesome, my only thing was the towels weren’t white, they had a brown hue to them, which made me a little nervous to use! Other than that SO recommend staying here. A must do when in the city.

Castle Mountain Lodge was a great place to stay. We stayed in the Castle Glen cabin over Christmas week and really enjoyed our time. Even without snow or elk sightings, the cabin was cozy, comfortable, and perfect for a relaxing mountain getaway. The location is quiet but still close to town, and everything was exactly as expected. Staff was friendly and helpful, and we had fresh wood each day. We had a fun stay and would absolutely come back again.

Our stay at Castle Mountain Lodge was just so enjoyable! We loved the room, the different buildings in the property. The entry bridge that was lit up with beautiful white lights, a postcard scene for sure! The river partly frozen nearby. Just beautiful and the surrounding area was awesome! The people who greeted us in the office, very friendly! Cookies were available or hot beverages. Nice little shop for souvenirs. Just a very lovely stay.

My sister & I stayed two nights at the Castle Mountain Lodge for my son’s destination wedding. This resort is truly a hidden gem! The staff treat you like family, down to home baked cookies and treats in front of the fireplace lodge. There is coffee, tea, board games, books, and a common kitchen area in the lodge common space. The upscale, rustic appearance blends seamlessly with the Rocky Mountains and Falls River, and the resort features lodging for parties of various sizes. They have horseshoes, shuffle board, snowshoes, and trails leading from the property. Each unit has either a porch or patio to enjoy the breathtaking scenery, and the lights on the covered bridge and building are gorgeous. The room was very clean, and the staff immaculately maintain the property. The property owners/staff were outside working on maintenance or landscaping every day. One of the lights in our room stopped working at the exact time we were preparing for the wedding. In less than 10 minutes, an employee came to our room and switched it out. I wished we’d had more time during our stay to enjoy this warm and welcoming resort, I highly recommend the Castle Mountain Lodge and look forward to a return visit!
