This lodge serves a hearty breakfast from 7:30 to 9:00. Each guest room has down comforters and pillows, wireless internet access, and access to discounted lift tickets. The Lodge Bar is open for apres ski activities until 10:30 pm. This feels like a small mountain lodge, but the accommodations are great and the ski resort is only a short drive away.
The Lodge at Mountaineer Square
This is another ski lodge with convenient access to the ski slopes and top notch amenities/services. Enjoy the use of an indoor/outdoor heated pool, full fitness center, business center, ski valet and all of the other amenities you would expect with one of Crested Butte's highest rated lodges.

There are 2 restaurants in this hotel: Prime and another restaurant called 9380. 9380 features a fire pit and outdoor bar for enjoying the spring sun after a day of skiing. Prime is more of a fine dining restaurant where you can expect to spend at least $30 for a meal.

This inn has more than 30 rooms; each with cable, internet access and daily housekeeping services. You can expect to pay between $100 and $150 for a room here during the ski season. While you won't see the gold sink faucets that you might see in one of the top-rated hotels, you can expect great service and a pleasurable stay from this privately owned Inn.
