Coyote Mountain Lodge

Coyote Mountain Lodge

8/10 Good
"We only passed by the area and stayed for one night. Close to RMNP. Very big and spacious rooms. The only issue for us was the a/c unit which did not cool properly at night. We had a late check in and were leaving early in the morning so we just put up with it. As for the late check in the staff was great in communicating instructions for us to access our rooms without issue."
