My husband and I stayed here on our wedding night, and it was great! My parents stayed in the room next to us, and they also enjoyed their stay. Nell is very friendly, kind, and accommodating. I can't believe how busy Leadville has gotten since I used to live at Twin Lakes a decade ago, so I'm grateful the rooms had earplugs in them to ensure sound sleep. Thank you Nell, and thank you Timberline for contributing to a memorable marriage! :)

I loved my stay at Timberline. Leadville is so adorable - everything is walkable from the hotel and I enjoyed my short stay here. There are restaurants, breweries, and wineries in the area. You don't have to walk far for anything you wanna do. There are also a lot of gorgeous hikes in the area, no more than a 20 minute drive to two really awesome hikes nearby (Timberline Lake and Mount Elbert). I'd stay here again in a minute. The beds were so cozy, there's tea and coffee available in your room, a fan available if needed, and lots of other amenities. For the price and the location, you can't beat it.

Lovely little motel, recently remodeled. Bunks for kids in a separate area with a door (so adults can stay up after kids go to bed! And no fighting about sharing a bed!). Perfect little kitchenette area. Warm and cozy modern cabin feel. Storage shelves and hooks for all your bags. Right in downtown area. Reasonably priced. Definitely recommended!

I have a special place in my heart for the Timberline. The loft use to be apartments that my Grandpa and other family members lived in. The Timberline reconstructed the 3 apartments in to one big Loft. They did a wonderful job!!! My husband and I stayed in the loft for 5 days this summer. It’s just a magical space. So many memories from my childhood. The views are incredible. Can’t wait to go back next year.

Hidden Gem in Leadville Colorado We drove from South Dakota to Arizona in an RV but the generator went out. No generator means no sleeping in the coach. I started searching while we drove and the minute, I saw the website for the Timberline I knew I had the place. I called and spoke to the team to make sure I would be able to park the RV nearby. I was able to secure a King-sized room. The room is modern and quaint at the same time. Competitively priced and easy to check in without having to wait in lines. Within walking distance of restaurants and shops. We drove into town in the dark and were in awe of the view when we walked out in the morning. Leadville is charming and beautiful and we definitely want to see it in the Spring/Summer/Fall months.
