We liked the hot tub after a 6 mile hike! The pool was nice also. The continental breakfast had fruit, yogurt and packaged pastries and the coffee was very good! Sighting of a 12 point bull elk lounging across the creek behind the property was a real plus!!!

We just checked out of Murphy’s River Lodge and we couldn’t be happier. We were in Estes Park on an anniversary trip and loved staying here! The convenience of walking to restaurants and all over town is so nice. We also loved being on the river, the pleasant staff and the breakfast every morning!
