Fodor's "Near the mouth of Boulder Canyon and the Boulder Creek Path, it seems far from Boulder's bustle, yet it's only a few minutes' walk from downtown." Full review
Gayot "Established in 1936, this is the oldest continuously operating motel in Boulder."
Lonely Planet "The motel itself looks like a cabin has been stretched out and bent around a parking lot, then tucked into a wooded glen literally at the foot of Flagstaff Mountain." Full review
Frommer's "This nicely preserved motel, a series of connected, cabin-style units with bright red trim near the east gate of Boulder Canyon, dates from the 1930s, but has kept up with the times." Full review
