Taylor River Lodge

Elk Mountains, Colorado

Perched above the lively currents of the Taylor River, Taylor River Lodge offers a rustic blend of comfort and character. Once a modest 1960s fishing camp, the property was thoughtfully reimagined with reclaimed board and chink siding, American clay walls and locally sourced stone creating a setting rich in warmth and authenticity. Throughout the grounds, charming cabins feature 1930s grain sack curtains, hickory beds, vintage textiles and antique furnishings, blending nostalgic charm with rustic elegance. At the heart of the lodge, a grand stone fireplace and horseshoe bar flanked by deep seating provide the perfect backdrop for sharing stories or simply unwinding. Every detail, indoors and out, celebrates a connection to the timeless beauty of the Colorado wilderness.
