“We'll return to the Silver Moon!”

Silver Moon Inn

25 Oct 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

I planned a trip for my mom, sister, daughter and neice to Colorado as a distraction to the anniversary of my father's passing a year earlier. Our first night we stayed at the Silver Moon Motel, Estes Park, CO. I didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised when we arrived and found this family owned motel nestled between a beautiful stream of crystal clear mountain water and a mountainside. We enjoyed the scenery, Aspen trees were yellow, pinecones all over the ground to stow away and take home. The owners' son worked the evening shift and was so pleasant and helpful. We were all exhausted from travel, but a few of us wanted to take a scenic drive, he made a perfect suggestion to drive short loop through the national park where he saw about a hundred elk that morning, then down to Bear Lake. We enjoyed this drive just before sunset and saw several herd of elk grazing - beautiful drive!

Breakfast was packaged pastries, perfect for grabbing on the go to drive the park for the day. Rooms were not the same old drab rooms you are accustomed to, but our room had special "artsy" satin bed coverings - a double glass door right by the stream and a window we could open and hear the stream right outside. Everything was clean and well maintained. Our whole crew enjoyed that spot very much and I will definitely return! You should too if you are a budget traveller and like something nicer than Motel 6, but doesn't kill your pocketbook.

“Great little Inn”

Silver Moon Inn

5 Oct 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

Stayed 3 days at Silver Moon Inn on recent trip to Colorado. Our room #105 was small, however we were advised of this when making reservation. Should have booked earlier. We did have a king sized bed, which management is changing soon. The bed took up half of the room. However, the Inn was very nice, plenty of pastries, fresh coffee and juices every morning. It's a wonderful location, at the edge of the busy tourist street, just a short walk to the heart of the town. We saw elk walking around
a small park right in the heart of town, took many great pictures.
The front desk was always helpful and friendly. Especially peaceful was sitting outdoors right next to the brook that runs through town and in front of the Inn. Room was cleaned promptly
every day, always looked nice when we returned.
Estes Park is at the base of Rocky Mountain National Park and we drove to the summit one day. Weather cooperated and we truly enjoyed our trip. Highly recommended....

Stayed at the Silver Moon Inn on Sept. 15th and 16th. I found this Inn on tripadvisor. The rooms were very nice. Stayed in both sections. The new section with gas fireplace was very romantic. Fell asleep to the peaceful sound of the Fall River just outside the room. Owners recommended dinner at Marys Lake Lodge--excellent food, music and view of the mountains. The hot tub was great after a long day of hiking. ENJOY!

“Great Location, Odd Remodeling”

Silver Moon Inn

Save Review
4 of 5 stars
Indianapolis
25 Sep 2007

Pros:
Location, Location, Location - A great spot by the creek and within 1 block on downtown. Avoids traffic driving into the park.
Staff - Very friendly and helpful

Cons
Remodeling - Work done was obviously haphazard. Electrial outlets in the middle of the wall. Tile that doesn't fit. A musty smell.
Tiny Bathroom - Barely could turn around
Lightling - Odd ball lamps supplied little light
Smoking - All of the smokers hang out at the creek making it unpleasant for everyone else. Silver Moon - Please ban smoking from the property!

Overall, I would stay here again.

“Comfortable Clean Good Location”

A great place to stay with family to explore the Park. Our room had a well-stocked kitchenette and with the barbque grills near the river, there was no reason to eat in a restaurant (which is not a bad thing given Estes Park's selection). Its not plush, but its clean, comfortable, and in a great location.
