The retro look cabins with modern conveniences. Our room was very quiet, the bed was one of the most comfortable we had during our 10 day vacation The staff was outstanding with a wonderful knowledge of their town and the dining options available at what times The gazebo by the Chama River was so peaceful and a wonderful spot to look for the comet. If you are looking for a nice peaceful place to stay, This is it

The property itself was quaint and quiet. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend to people considering a Chama stay to be aware of limited restaurant options Sunday through Wednesday. There is a grocery store for supplies if guests end up fending for themselves.

Great stay, very comfortable and clean. The only improvement suggestion we'd have it some type of no-slip treatment on the shower stall. It was very slippery. Other than that, it was great.

We stayed in a Deluxe King room in the main lodge. It was spacious and well appointed, but there was a musty smell. The bathroom was super small, and did not have any hooks for hanging a robe or anything, no bath mat or rug, and the shower/tub was very slippery.
