Top Thorn Lake Hotel Reviews

Luxury Home, Lake & Mountains View around

10/10 Excellent

"Great house in secluded area of the Black Hawk Colorado hills. Diana the host was extremely attentive and helpful. House was clean and well kept with modern conveniences for such a remote home. The location is very convenient to many outdoor hikes and activities."

Hot Tub, Arcade games, and Mountain Views Retreat!

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and fun house. Hot tub was great. Just prepare for some gravel roads getting up to it."

Log Home with Mountain Views and Hot Tub on 2 Acres

10/10 Excellent

"Privacy: The back door on the master bedroom does not have a curtain. It’s a full glass door. We found a sheet to hang. Also, the master bathroom has a window with no window covering. The upstairs has no privacy window coverings at all. The cabin is amazing and beautiful. Easy to get to. Great directions. Very clean. Beds and bedding are very comfortable. The deck and hot tub is fantastic. Grill on the deck is very nice. The cushions on the patio furniture could be updated as they are torn or very thin. Understanding the fire ban, would be really awesome if the deck could have one or two propane fire-pit tables. Summer and fall evenings on the beautiful deck would be that much nicer with the ambience and warmth created by a propane fire pit."

Lucky 7 Modern Mountain Hideaway - Black Hawk

10/10 Excellent

"My husband, pup and I had a phenomenal stay at the cabin. It was nature overload with birds, moose, squirrels and bunnies. It was the perfect disconnect we needed. Cannot recommend this property enough. Austin made himself available for basic questions and the property had everything we needed. The space was perfect to lounge and stayed cool day and night. We will definately want to book again."
