Great amenities. Perfect for a family vacation. Our only complaint was the lack of AC. In July, it was quite warm in the room at bedtime.

Happy travelers
My wife and I just needed a room for one night, but didn't fully understand what YMCA of the Rockies was all about or we would have opted for a room with AC and TV. The property and all it offers was just outstanding as were the people that we encountered. We will stay at YMCA again given the opportunity.

Like this place a lot. Cheaper than most places near RMNP. Can see why families especially flock to it. Basic. It’s a YMCA. But also convenient if you want a store, cafeteria, a view, hiking, and activities. International crowd gives it a fun vibe.

Beautiful and Comfortable
Beautiful, comfortable property. This was a last minute stay for us. We came in late and left early in the morning. It would have been fun to stay longer at this property. So many activities here that our kids were interested in.

Huge Complex
Not quite what we expected for the price. It is a huge complex that would be great for families who are staying more than one night, because there are lots of scheduled activities. But for a couple who are just looking for a relaxing evening in the mountains, this is not the place.

Amazing location and value
Amazing location, price and tons of things to do. I wish our stay was longer so our kids could enjoy everything they had to offer. The room was basic, but it had everything we needed outside of an ice machine.

Family Friendly but needs a little update
We stayed in the Wind River Lodge (like a hotel). We were there to be with our daughter and family who stayed in a very nice cabin. Our room was clean and comfortable. Nice balcony w/chairs and great view. A box fan was provided and necessary since no AC. But for $200/night I was hoping for a little bit nicer? No bedspreads!? And blankets that looked like what I'd find at my grandma's house (thin and old). The conference grounds are gorgeous and lots of things to do with the grandkids.

Pretty cool place
Pretty cool place, lots of activities to get into. My kids really enjoyed it. Establishment was decently clean. You can tell it’s an older place & will probably need some renovations soon, but other than that it was nice.

A fun summer camp for all ages.
It was very much a “summer camp” feel. So many activities for all ages. A ice cream truck giving out free ice cream drives around each afternoon. Beautiful scenery all around. A lot of walking as the compound is huge but driving was always an option too.

Love the many activities that were available but very sad that the three days we were visiting the pool was unavailable.
Room was warm so we used the fan that was in the room but it was very loud.

Great for families
Spent most of the time hiking, beds were decently comfortable. Got a room with a queen bed and 2 twin bunk beds. No microwave, no tv, no fridge. Bathroom had toilet and stand up shower. Building was relatively quiet. Would book again
