The staff was friendly, and the rooms were spacious. I missed the breakfast but the Far View Terrace had decent food, and the entire complex reminded me of a sci-fi outpost. I'd definitely stay there again if I return to Mesa Verde.

We had a nice and clean room with an amazing view of Mesa Verde. I would definitely pay the extra money for the convenience of already being in the park versus the 45 minute drive if you stay in one of the nearby towns.

it's in the middle of the park, it's above cabin camping in my eyes so with that said it is great location in order for you to check out the cave dwellings we did 3 tours and some on our own. you only need 2 days to do the park

Good place to stay if you are touring Mesa Verde Ruins as it is directly in the park. Very convenient to stay here. AC in room wasn’t great but the rooms was clean. There was no TV In the room. On Wednesday evenings they have live music on the terrace so that was nice!

This place was fantastic! The view was fabulous, it’s so peaceful and convenient being right in the middle of a national park, and the location made it easy to get some work done while fitting in tours and sight seeing throughout the afternoon. The staff were wonderful and the restaurant with the view is top notch. I’m so glad that I found this gem- it really was the highlight of my trip to Mesa Verde National Park

Trip was amazing, Far view lodge was clean staff were great and helpful. The room had no tv or microwave, which for us was not an issue. You need permits for some of the trails so look that up so that you dont show up and not able to do certain ones. Food at the lodge was great especially the breakfast buffet. The gift shop was not overly expensive, purchased a fe items there. All in all this is a great place to stay and convenient to park trails. I would love to go back and stay.
