Apparently a bear(s) visited the campground all three Thursday nights we were there (and a few other nights, as well). The bear(s) was interested in the hummingbird feeders and trash bins, but Dave splashed Pine Sol around and that seemed to deter them. On the day we were to leave, we were on track to pull out between 10:00 and 10:30 AM, until I walked around to the street-side of the trailer to remove the chocks and discovered the tire had deflated so much, I could not remove either one. While we were inflating the tire, Dave showed up and started helping, unbidden. As it turned out, he ended up getting his jack, jacking up the trailer, removing the tire, placing it in the bed of the truck and telling us where to go to get the valve stem repaired. He said he'd check on the trailer periodically while we were gone to make sure no one was getting too close to the jack, etc. (He estimated it would be an hour; turned out to be more like 1.5 hours). No sooner had we returned and backed the truck up in front of the trailer, he was already out there to get the tire out of the bed of the truck and put it back on the trailer! When it was all said and done, my husband asked him what we owed him because we had way overstayed our check-out time and this sort of service certainly isn't in his job description, Dave refused anything. That was a lot of work, and we truly appreciate it.

I reserved this room through Expedia/Chase Travel and the pictures that Rainbow Lodge provided looked NOTHING like the room we received. Next, let's talk about noise. I can understand the road noise, as it is quite literally right off of the highway. What I can't excuse, is my neighbors door having to be kicked/forced open. Or any movement from the upstairs patron creek and echo throughout our room. Lastly, Comfort... or lack there of. The window ac unit for the room was broken. They had makeshift handles, but it still only worked on max heat. We had to continually get up throughout the night to turn it off and on to regulate the temperature in the room. On top of that, there was NO BLANKET/COMFORTER. We had 3 sheets on the bed. Thankfully we had our sleeping bags in the car. At checkout, I received an automated text on how to checkout. Since we had already left and forgot to lift the shades, I texted back to notify them and received no response. So I assumed, it was an automated text line. I decided to wait until I got home from 14 hours of travel, to report my claim through Expedia/Chase Travel. Rainbow Lodge says that they will not resolve the issue because "I never reached out to them." As previously stated, that is false. They did not text me back when I notified them of the shades, which would have given me the opportunity to voice my concerns. When I did text the line with my concerns after they refused to remedy the situation with Expedia/Chase Travel, I was met with the same excuse "you didn't reach out during your stay" which I'll say one last time, is false. I 100% will never stay here again. Please proceed with caution if you choose to stay here.

The place itself is very conveniently located to anything in Pagosa and also to various hikes. The facility is visually appealing and the hosts are far and away the nicest, most accommodating people you could ever meet. Just so happened it is the beginning of the season and we were the only guests for two nights. We were downright spoiled with the attention we received. Took full advantage of the happy hour (two hours actually) which included some amazing appetizers and open bar. Our first night we decided to take advantage of the in house dinner menu and it was terrific as well. Tried the filet with mushroom risotto and also the beef stroganoff with rice. We both shared and enjoyed immensely. Dessert was vanilla ice cream with an amaretto/maple sauce. I would drink that with a straw by the way. I was even given seconds on dessert, thanks Jim. We had the loft room in the main house which has its own balcony, fireplace, bathroom, AC unit, sitting area, etc, etc, etc. They think of all the touches including drinking water, smart TV, a fridge, and even simple things like eyeglass cleaning wipes in the room. Very comfortable room, king bed, and overall feel. I should probably mention that each morning we had a custom gourmet type breakfast. Odilia likes to cook and she is good at it. Our last morning we even took our breakfast out on the main deck and enjoyed the breathtaking views. We went hiking that morning and they even let us check out a little late so we could shower up before moving on to our next city. Speaking of which, we were also able to request a to go lunch for our hiking days. Food was great and plentiful. Became lunch and snacks for the day. Big thanks to Jim and Odilia.
