Cozy lodge
lodge is located in a beautiful area. right next to creek. Very accessible to all reasturants and town park. walking trails everywhere. Would definitely stay again. Minor note space is small so pack accordingly but very nice common kitchen area.

Great location
We loved the location near the center of town, easy walking to restaurants, shops and the gondola lift. Staff was friendly and super nice to talk too. Room was clean/comfortable and what we expected for the price. Breakfast was better than expected. I would not hesitate to book here again.

Thank you, for the great review! We look forward to hosting you again!

Nice hot tub next to the creek
The toilet paper is crumbly. I recommend stronger TP. We loved being near the creek and loved the hot tub and the well stocked kitchen. Parking worked like magic. I emailed you late at night to register the car parked on the street and we never had an issue with it. I would recommend however that you tell people that there is a loading zone for a car. We found it by accident which was fortunate since it was late at night and street parking was getting confusing. We were able to unload the car and get suitcases into the room before searching for longer term parking. That wasn't mentioned in emails or on the website from what I could see.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We will take your thoughts about TP under consideration. I am thrilled to hear you parking went smoothly. We hope to welcome you back again!

Ms.
Kayleigh was so friendly and helpful! She said hello to us by name when we saw her on the property and in town! She gave us the cutest mugs and ice cream when she found out we were celebrating our 10 year anniversary. My husband and I looked forward to the freshly baked cookies! I was enchanted by the sound of the San Miguel river outside our window. The location was perfect! We could walk everywhere and access trailheads easily. The Manitou Lodge is in the middle of everything. I highly recommend staying here!

Mrs
We really enjoyed our stay at the Manitou. We were shocked at the prices of other lodges and rentals. The price for our room was the lowest that I could find that met our needs and the room was very comfortable. Retta, the manager was extremely helpful and accommodating. Although the accommodations didn’t have a kitchenette as we had hoped, there was a full kitchen across the hall from us that met our needs and we had a mini frig in our room. The location was perfect for us as it was near the gondola, restaurants, and trails. The Manitou Lodge met our needs at a reasonable price.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! I am very glad to hear you enjoyed your visit! I would love to host you in our kitchenette unit, should you return in the future. - Retta, The Manitou Lodge Innkeeper.

Retta is an incredible asset to the company! She made us feel so at home and gave us wonderful Telluride recommendations. Will come back again and again!

Overall we enjoyed the property and Retta was very helpful. The flooring in the unit needs to be replaced. It smells.

Mr
Staff are attentive and very easy to work with. If you have a need, they are on top of it. The location is perfect for town events. We found the community room to be really nice. I like that the room came with, in addition to the normal accommodations, a fan, heater and robes (for if you want to go out to the hot tub). Each room is unique. It's also the best priced stay in Telluride.

- Hans G , Posted: 10/20/2021

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Hans! We love to hear that you soaked in the charm of The Manitou Lodge. It is a classic lodging location of Telluride.

Nice little place, convenient location . The unexpected pleasant surprise was the breakfast room and hostess Shellanie, we enjoyed talking with her. Screens on the big windows would be a good improvement because there wasn't A/C.

- Susan H , Posted: 3/19/2021

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! Shellanie has been a great addition to the team. We're actually looking at getting the windows replaced in the near future - so we appreciate the note!

Nice location, great views, friendly, helpful staff.
Nice stay, nice room. Parking was no problem. Shower is small, I am 6', 215 and was rubbing against the glass. A larger frame would find it difficult. Also, we made a call on the emergency line one night, got a recording. Received a call back on the way to next location a couple of days later.

- Frank O , Posted: 3/19/2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the Manitou Lodge #1! We're so glad you enjoyed your accommodations (aside from the smaller shower). We actually had some issues with the emergency line recently, but it has since been fixed. We're sorry you weren't able to touch base with someone at that time. We hope to see you again soon!

Great Location along River Trail
This is a great location within walking distance of all that Telluride has to offer.

- Derek P , Posted: 3/19/2021

Thank you for your review of the Manitou Lodge. It does have one of the best locations in Telluride.

Parking is an issue
Due to the lack of parking, we will not be staying there again.We looked for parking in the ""W"" area and found nothing.We finally called and paid Alberto $20.00 to park in the dirt lot .

- Marie S , Posted: 3/19/2021

We're so sorry to hear about your issue with the parking. Parking is one of the issues everyone has in Telluride. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay.
