A Bear and Bison Country Inn

This is such a beautiful boutique hotel. Rooms are large, this is not a big complex you are made feel at home as soon as you arrive. The lounge area is a great place to unwind with a nice wine, and you’ll probably be the only ones there as this is a very quaint hotel.

I relied heavily on reviews while planning for my micro destination wedding so I wanted to leave a detailed review for other brides looking. The Bear & Bison was perfect. Lonny & his team made the planning process stress free. We had a 20 person micro wedding & rented the entire Inn for the weekend (10 bedrooms). The place is exactly the vibe for the Rockies - log cabin style with a view of the mountains. Our guests could not stop talking about the food - they even made accommodations for our 10 year old cousin who loved her pancakes instead of the "adult" breakfasts. I cannot speak enough about the staff. Brooke, Annette, and Barbara continuously checked on us to ensure we had everything we needed. We didn't need to bring any decorations as they set up everything perfectly from their inventory. I was so stressed about the rain (it didn't end up raining) but the girls were fully prepared with options for umbrellas or setting up inside which I cannot thank enough. Everyone loved the bartender Landon - he talked to all the guests and made everyone feel like his family. From our bonfire welcome night, to the wedding day itself, to the goodbye breakfast, the staff made sure every event went perfectly. This was our dream wedding. I cannot thank the staff enough for making the weekend so special for us. We will definitely be back for an anniversary. A few notes for future brides -ask the staff which rooms don't have separate showers when planning for elderly or disabled guests -Put bath salts as favors for your guests since all the rooms have beautiful tubs -do the bonfire package plus bar the night before the wedding - it was easier to organize than planning a trip to another bar, plus people can go to bed when they want. -All of the food was outstanding especially the 3 sisters baked alaska cake

This is a very nice quite location. The building and rooms are on the small side but very nice. Not super modern but still in good condition. The hot tub was always quiet and so nice to use in the evening. Parking was a bit tight and a gravel lot with huge potholes so be aware! No real view from our room other than the treed yard, but it was nice and private. Staff was very friendly. Included breakfast was awesome, but it would be nice if they asked how you wanted it cooked. I don't like runny eggs and hot sauce but that's what I got. You only get a choice of the time you get breakfast, not what you get. Still, a very nice place and I would definitely return. Thanks!
