On the crest of Monarch Mountain, this informal Rocky Mountain lodge offers guests various outdoor adventures, panoramic mountain views, and a short five-minute shuttle ride to Monarch Ski Area. It’s located 20 minutes west of Salida on Highway 50.
Situated a couple of miles from the Continental Divide Trail and in a non-commercialized atmosphere, the lodge’s 90 rooms provide an ultimate setting for relaxing and the perfect retreat for all outdoor buffs.
