YMCA of The Rockies Estes Park
Very family friendly! So many activities scheduled. Best part was on site roller rink.

Coyote Mountain Lodge
Parking was great. The room was nice and spacious. We didn’t try the hot tub. The morning guests were a little noisy. I’m guessing just normal foot traffic to and from their room. Nothing out of the ordinary. We very much enjoyed our stay. We had some beautiful views as well.

Discovery Lodge
There was construction going on till almost 11PM at right above our room, we had the only room in the building block, everything else was closed for construction. Doors didn’t lock properly. Worst breakfast. Pictures shown on site are not the same as in person, more run down
