  Our family has stayed at Rocky Top Lodge for the last six summers and we can't wait to return next year. The condos are well appointed, very comfortable, and are in an absolutely gorgeous mountain setting. The kitchens are completely equipped. The grounds are kept in emaculate condition and huge deer visit regularly. It's a great place to have as home base for all the activities around Lake City. We highly recommend Rocky Top.

  We came up for a week and brought our daughter and family. It was perfect for 4 adults and 2 kids! Plenty of room, very comfortable beds, sitting areas, and roomy. Best place we have stayed in the mountains and we have been coming to Colorado for over 30 years to fly fish in the summer and fall (and used to come in winter to ski). Could not be better!

  Rocky Top has been my family's favorite vacation place for many, many years. The condo is always well maintained, clean and feels like home. The location is convenient and the grounds and views are just beautiful. The owners have become like family and are readily available if you need anything. It is a welcoming, comfortable place to enjoy all the activities of the area - hiking, fishing, four-wheeling, off road adventure or just savoring the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of Colorado. I highly recommend Rocky Top as your vacation home away from home.

  There are many beautiful places to visit in Colorado, but our favorite is Rocky Top Lodge in Lake City. We usually spend a week there each summer to escape the Texas heat. The cool weather, peaceful setting, wonderful sightseeing in the mountains and great trout fishing in the area have a strong pull on us. The units at Rocky Top are very comfortable, spacious, and fully equipped for relaxed living. We especially like sitting and reading on the large covered porch. The owners are very hospitable and helpful in giving information about what to see and do around Lake City. The town is a fun place to shop and the restaurants are very good. We have been coming back to Rocky Top for over 20 years. I especially enjoy the trout fishing and my wife loves to relax and enjoy the area. Our stays there have always an annual highlight for us. We highly recommend Rocky Top Lodge.

  We have never wanted to own a vacation home because there are so many places that we want to visit in the US, Canada, and overseas. We rarely return to the same place in consecutive years. However, Rocky Top Lodge is the exception. We have missed only one year since we accidentally found it 15 years ago. Now, a year would seem "broken" without our two weeks in July at Rocky Top. Why is Rocky Top so special? The lodges are very comfortable, exceptionally clean, fully equipped, well maintained, and located in a beautiful and interesting area. Everything is prepared to make our visit memorable. The most special part of our time there is not the facilities or the location, it is our hosts, Bob and Linda Inge. We could write a book on all the ways they have blessed us. They are honest, conscientious, kind, admirable, humorous and loving -- without even trying. It just comes "naturally". Bob is a wise and practical person. We ask his advice before every new activity, place, or situation. Back to the "place". There are many special touches. Linda provides and attends to beautiful flower baskets around the lodge. We enjoy the "wood pellet" heating stove (a picturesque extra because the lodge has very comfortable electric heat). Bob keeps the "grounds" clean and beautiful. We enjoy the front porch, the outdoor grill and picnic table. The Lake City Area is beautiful. Our favorite activity is looking at wild flowers from a rented Jeep. The area is laced with ATV/Jeep "trails". Our favorite areas for flowers are American Basin, Yankee Boy Basin (near Ouray), and the area around Crested Butte -- information is available at tourist offices. The Alpine Loop Jeep trail winds through beautiful 14,000 foot mountains -- the trail itself goes above 13,000 ft. The jeep trails are safe and the views are spectacular. Bob will tell you where to go and how to get there safely. Hunting and fishing are popular. A lot of beautiful scenery is accessible by a standard car. Highway 149 goes south from Lake city, by spectacular Lake San Crystobal, over the continental divide, through high mountain meadows at 10,000 feet, past beautiful Clear Creek falls, with views of the Rio Grande headwaters and Bristol Head's sheer rock cliffs. Route 149 continues south to Creed, an interesting town with old silver mines, spectacular cliffs, arts & crafts, and a summer repertoire theatre. The Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and Blue Mesa lake are 50 miles north of Lake City. Enjoy!

  Owner response: This is one of the reasons we love doing this - the people! While we don't become fast friends with everyone who stays here - after all, many guests want their privacy and alone time - we enjoy every type of person, and always hope to make everyone welcome and comfortable.
