Clean spacious room. Very small shower stall. A little noisy with neighbors and upstairs shower. They did provide ear plugs! Mini-refrigerator with freezer, microwave and Keurig were greatly appreciated.
Staff responded promptly. Check in and check out totally virtual.
Is there access to an ice machine?
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Spruce Lodge! It was quaint, quiet at night, very thoughtful with snacks and water and coffee that were complimentary. TV and Wi Fi was great! You absolutely can’t beat the price anywhere!!! We will definitely stay here again!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Very cozy environment, pretty good pricing for a small Colorado town. Super easy and convenient check in which was the best check in I have ever experienced. Honestly the only reason it’s not a 5 star is the king size bed mattress I slept on absolutely was blown out and very uneven and needs to be replaced. The furnace in the room was super old and dated, BUT it did work and I didn’t freeze… and lastly bathroom felt very small, you have to close the door to be able to use the toilet at all.
Arrived late evening, our key was where it was promised
Beds extremely comfortable, small shower but usable
Delighted to coffee maker, coffee and tea, and a huge basket of bars, fruit and nuts, bottled water, etc,That was our dinner since we had spent all day with appts,in Denver then drove to South Fork
I barely saw it in the daylight, but looked well maintained
beautiful area
This is my second stay at this hotel, and it was as good as the last time. The owner is very friendly and informative. Though the area is in a quiet area to begin with , try and get a room to the back side as the view and quiet is really nice
