(Right across from some RV looking homes) Fortunately the interior was much nicer and the food was great. We all had the pound burger and it was very delicious. The waitress was nice and the food came out quickly enough for an obviously home made, non-frozen burger and fries. Would come again. Only downside was the desert which we got to go and was disappointed. My dad had gone there when they made the pies fresh and good, which is not the case of the pies we ate.

Honestly, couldn't be more grateful we needed up here! I had not honestly heard of Walsenburg but we couldn't have gotten any luckier! The private loft space was SO clean. Plenty of towels left out for us. Comfortable couches to kick back on while we re-evaluated our next move. And THE BED - we stayed in Loft 1 and that queen bed was SO comfortable. We had the sweetest view of the town square from our window and the snow covering the trees was a magical touch. I can't emphasize how grateful we are for the most unexpected space to wind up in. THANK YOU so much.

We've stayed twice now at Yellow Pine Ranch. Once 3 summers ago at "Guest House" and the second…read moretime last weekend at "Bunkhouse". The cabins are very homey and quaint. My husband and I preferred Guest House for the seclusion/Privacy. It's off by itself near a pond. The check in process is easy and the owner is very professional and nice. We had actually forgotten our checkbook (they accept cash/check only) to pay our remaining balance and she graciously allowed us to pay once we returned home. In the summer months they have horseback riding on property and chuck wagon suppers. We've always stayed in the autumn months, so haven't been able to comment on those amenities. If you're looking for a week or weekend away in the mountains, I'd highly recommend Yellow Pine Ranch.

INTIMIDATING Dog Policy…read more I understand - some previous visitors felt "intimidated" by a 50+ pound Dog so now the rest of us can't stay here as large Dogs aren't allowed. So unfortunate. Yellow Pine Ranch is where I learned about nature in the 1980s: "Cocklebur" the donkey who lived in the grassy field outside our cabin - he happily ate our hand-fed carrots. Horseback riding with my ol' friend "Taco," the great white horse with brown spots. And hummingbirds that would happily sit on your finger. My Senior Retrievers have traveled to Italy, the Texas Coast, and are possibly more well-behaved than some humans. It saddens my heart that a place nestled in what my Dad called "God's Country" doesn't welcome God's creatures. The management here could benefit from a reality check. So I don't meet their reservation requirements. I'm fine with that. SPECIAL NOTE ~ When I spoke to Diane today she could have *not noticed less* when I told her my family stayed here at Yellow Pines 40 years ago. How sad that is.

Hotel was clean, employees were nice, rooms were clean AND nice. What's more to say? The main things in a room are always shower pressure, airflow/AC/heat and tidiness. And look at that! All three here excelled! The restaurant downstairs was also a great place to order food to go and go back into the room to hibernate awhile and watch some trash tv. I will say though, the area around is pretty meh to walk around in. Great food choices for a small area, but I probably wouldn't walk around by myself if I were staying here alone. Great place to stay and highly recommend you to splurge a bit and stay here.
