so many reasons to book direct
When you book directly with us, you’re doing more than just getting the best rate — you’re helping keep Leadville wild, welcoming, and thriving.
As an independent, family-run motel, we’re able to offer lower rates when you skip third-party booking sites — and we put those savings to good use. We proudly donate 1% of every direct booking to 1% for the Outdoors – Lake County, a program that protects the lands, trails, wildlife, and outdoor spaces that make Leadville special.
Funds raised support the work of the Central Colorado Conservancy, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the beauty and heritage of our region — from scenic open space and recreation access to working lands and historic mining sites. It’s a small way to give back to the land that gives us so much.
We’ll keep you in the loop on special events and when we open future booking dates.
