It's got a little history about mutilated livestock and strange sitings by campers through the years but, otherwise, it's just a great place to stretch your legs and enjoy a little fun. It's minutes from the highway, a little bit of a drive from the Great Sand Dunes. At a $5 cover and easy parking, with a menagerie of handcrafted oddities representing aliens and saucerships and other such things out of this world, why would ya pass it up?

UPDATE: Not a retaliation as we never requested a refund. We left after one night because the place…read morewas filthy and not as described. We spoke with the host four separate times, and even politely requested chairs for our tent (which never arrived), so the statement that we did not seek to rectify issues is not true. As for the sugary drink, that cup was in my hand as I was drinking it, so.....enough said. Most importantly, the Rook has not once contacted us to discuss the issues, even after multiple requests from us. Look at their responses to any negative review. No accountability, no apologies, just excuses and attacks. Maybe the Rook should spend less time bullying their patrons and more time cleaning the bathrooms. I had plenty more photos, including the disgusting bathrooms, so I posted more for all to see. Photos speak volumes. Management can contact me at any time if they are truly interested in improving. Set your expectations. This property is neither "glamorous" nor a "resort." The positive: The property has some outstanding sunsets, and the dark skies were special. Breakfast burritos were tasty. That said... The reality: Our tent looked nothing like the photos on the website. First, it was filthy. Stains and animal droppings littered the floor, and it looked like it hadn't been thoroughly swept in months (see photos). We had only one small nightstand (website states two), so we had to pile all our belongings on the bed to avoid the poo and dirt on the floor. Instead of the comfy "butterfly chairs" pictured on the website, we had two decrepit chairs with uneven cushions (see photos). Not comfy. The wooden chairs on the deck were rickety and neither safe nor comfortable (again see photos), so we had nowhere to relax. Because we had nowhere to sit and our tent was 130+ degrees from 8am to 8pm (note that they do warn you that the tents are quite hot in the summer), we tried exploring outside. Unfortunately, the bugs made it unbearable (see photos of my cup covered in hundreds of gnats) and the property offers no shade to respite from the sun. We are seasoned backpackers and campers, so I understand rustic, but for HEFTY price tag, I expected more than gnats, animal droppings, and gross bathrooms. Our reservation was for two nights, but one was enough for us. Now, Before the "rook" comes at us (I've read some of the other responses), please know that we did go to the office several times to try to resolve issues. We also requested twice that the owners phone us. We've heard nothing from them, so now they get a yelp review.update;

Even before I stepped foot onto this property, I was exchanging emails with Annette and Amber…read moreregarding some logistics of the trip including meals, high altitude and sand sleds. They were always very responsive which helped with the planning of this trip. We arrived pretty late on the first day around 830pm. Amber helped check us in and she was not only super helpful (showing us our tent, capturing a few moths for us, starting the camp stove for us etc) but was super friendly so shout out to Amber!! We got to enjoy the last bit of smores by the firepit before we unloaded, bbq our burgers and unwind for the night. I booked the Estate tent 16x20 which included two full beds and a couch that can unfold into a small bed as well. It comes with a camp stove (1 pack of wood per night). It also came with a private toilet and sink on one side and a shower on the other. I have been to a few glamping spots and this is one that consistently had hot running water! This is true glamping in style..comes with wifi so you can stay connected even at the tents, chargers, free breakfast, free smores..they have everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The property is beautiful! Mosca, CO which is one of my new favorite place!! The constellations, stars and Milky Way is the best I have seen so far and I have been to a few International dark skies spots for star gazing. We packed a telescope and enjoyed star gazing after dinner. Rustic Rook is amazing in everyway, glamping at its finest! PS: I just realized they do military discounts when I was browsing through their website again. I did not see that when I booked my reservation, oh well. Thank you for supporting military members and veterans!

Run down. I always see old roadside motels and want them revived. This one has potential, but no…read moreone did the work to revive it! The carpet is ancient! Yech. The air conditioner is in an alcove and it is a window unit. There is then a floor fan to push the air into the sleeping area. Forget about air conditioning in the bathroom. Everything in here is ancient and the dust is so old that whoever cleans would have to use a stiff bristle brush to get it off the stucco walls and the baseboards, so imagine the filth in the afore mentioned ancient carpet! The room smelled strongly of Febreze,makes me wonder what stench they are trying to hide. No one on the property after 9 pm and until after 3 pm the next day. Hated it.
