Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
As others said. Great if you want to disconnect. No TV. Cell service was one bar and unreliable. Wi-Fi per person was 1.5 Mb/s - nearly useless (disconnected me when trying to make reservations in national Park timed entry so couldn’t go).
THe staff were great and very welcoming. THe property is simple, but clean and well kept. Nothing fancy, but the outside makes it fancy and perfect!!!!
We had a wonderful stay here at Dao house. I booked it knowing I wanted something close to the Rockies and I couldn’t have been happier. Very tranquil experience, friendly staff and cozy room. Thank you for giving us a nice stay!

Disliked: Staff & service
Good for hiking trip
The lodge is in a great location for entering the rocky mountain National park southeast entrance, and if you like to be away from the tourist traffic. The room is comfortable and bathroom very dated. It is a quick drive into town. What the lodge fails to mention is that they do not offer any daily service. So if you plan to stay multiple days, that means no clean towels or additional toilet paper. Maybe you can ask- but that requires finding someone to ask. After we checked in, we never saw a front desk person until we left.
It was a good area but I didn't like that it had no fridge in the rooms or microwave. I definitely didnt like the bed was very old and uncomfortable!!! Staff was definitely nice.
The shower wasn't connected to the faucet in the tub. The water was light brown colored It left grit on your skin. I brought bottled water which we used for tooth brushing and drinking.The lock on the back door had a loose plate so it did not work.There is no signage when you arrive or directions to check-in. The internet is very spotty.
