Reviews
Location
Getting around is quite simple with our direct access to Highway 24. Anywhere you go, you are in for a beautiful drive! Escape to your own tranquil retreat in the quiet neighborhood at the Mountain River Lodge in Lake George, CO. This hidden gem offers a serene getaway surrounded by Ponderosa Pines and the most beautiful Aspens. As you plan for your trip, we recommend downloading offline maps or printing directions in advance, as the area may have limited cell service coverage. Rest assured, most vehicles can access the property year-round, but during the winter months and snowy weather, we recommend a reliable 4-wheel drive for added convenience and peace of mind. The cabin has direct access to Highway 24, so you may be fine without it, but out of caution, 4 wheel drive is recommended. Please note that public transportation is not available, and it's advisable not to rely on popular ride sharing services like Uber or Lyft to reach your secluded haven. Embrace the solitude and create unforgettable memories in this idyllic retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
