I had a wonderful stay at the lodge, especially enjoying the comfortable Bear cabin that catered well to my family's needs. The location near the mountains and beautiful surroundings made it perfect for our outdoor adventures. However, I did notice some aspects that could use improvement, such as the older facilities in certain areas. Overall, it was a great experience for a family getaway.

The lodge had fantastic amenities including a hot tub and a rec room. Though we didn't get to use the facilities much, I noticed the hot tub was well-maintained, and there were opportunities to borrow DVDs for entertainment.

I had a pleasant stay at Ute Bluff Lodge while driving back home. The owners were super friendly, and my king bed room was quite comfy with a nice foam mattress. However, I did notice some traffic noise, which was a bit annoying, especially at first. Next time, I wanna try staying in one of their cabins for a longer trip.

The hot tub was inviting, and I could see it being a nice spot to unwind after a day of exploring. I didn't use the Rec room but noticed it had games and a movie screen.

I had a lovely week at Ute Bluff Lodge, and the natural beauty surrounding the area was simply stunning. The room was very clean, and I slept like a baby on the new memory-foam mattress. However, the lack of air conditioning on warmer days was a slight inconvenience, though the large fan helped quite a bit.

Rooms

The clean room had a king-size bed that was incredibly comfortable thanks to the memory-foam mattress. I appreciated the large refrigerator which was perfect for storing my groceries. The absence of A/C was manageable with the provided fan, but it could still get a bit warm in the afternoons.

I had a mixed experience at Ute Bluff Lodge. The location was fantastic for outdoor activities, but the facilities felt a bit dated. The beds were comfortable, and it was great that I could bring my dogs along, but housekeeping could really improve. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would consider returning.
