Annual visit!
This is our second visit at the Columbine Inn. We have been very pleased both times. The room was cleaned everyday and stocked with fresh towels. We love the fact that the room has a microwave and refrigerator. We don't spend a lot of time in the room since we are out hiking and exploring the park, so the room is perfect for us. I also love the shampoo, conditioner, soap, and lotion!

Pleasant stay
Our room was clean and included a microwave, Keurig coffee maker, and a minifridge. The toiletries were from Bath and Body Works, a very pleasant surprise! Our bed was not super comfortable, unfortunately.
