Absolutely loved staying at the Timberline! Super convenient location if you’re doing any of the Leadville race series and of course it’s walkable to everything in town. I also loved the little courtyard area with fire pit!Room was super clean and cozy and just perfect for a busy and active weekend in town. Appreciated all the hosts’ proactive communication with check in info and instructions via text, as well as prompt responses. Checkout was very easy as well.Would definitely stay here again!!

The room was very clean and comfortable and the bed was great. The location could not be better. We have two suggestions: 1. Provide heating in the floors because they were cold when we arrived. 2. Repair the fan in the heater. It impacted metal on each rotation which required us to turn off the fan to stop the noise. Room 5.

I definitely recommend the Timberline for short stays in Leadville? ☺ Location was perfect, coffee, refrigerator & microwave were helpful, and the bed was comfy. ☹ The space is small for two adults and a child but we made it work.

This motel is a GREAT find. My only sorrow is that others will (and are) discovering this and I'm already finding it a challenge to fit it in to my next visit to Leadville. I will keep trying. I so much want to try staying in room nine. The staff that was cleaning up when I rolled up to the motel last week were SO NICE. Also Nell's email interactions were also helpful and full of good information. I am looking forward to my next chance to stay at The Timberline. Huzzah!

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the loft! It was spacious, cozy, and you can’t beat the views. The arcade game off of the living room was a fun and unique touch. Definitely check this place out!
