Guests – Gunnison River Lodge is a perfect vacation getaway.  No matter what the occasion, whether serious fishing expeditions, family fishing or snow skiing vacations, golf outings; family reunions; or corporate and private retreats, the lodge is ideal.

Setting – Gunnison River Lodge is on-the-water so you can fish right out the back door. The Lodge is located just 3 minutes from the town of Gunnison and the Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport.  Just a few miles downstream the Gunnison River flows into Colorado’s largest body of water, known as Blue Mesa Reservoir where sight seeing, boating, sailing, and fishing abound.  If you’re inclined for a game of golf you’ll be excited to know that Gunnison River Lodge is actually surrounded by the Dos Rios golf course where the public is welcomed.  For those with a little more energy left at the end of the day you might even try biking to downtown Gunnison for a little taste of the wild west.

Nearby – Just a short 30 minutes away is the picturesque town of Crested Butte.  Crested Butte features some of the finest snow skiing and snowboarding in the country.  Crested Butte is not only known as the "Last Great Colorado Ski Town" it offers an amazing shopping experience with its prominent Victorian architecture within the ever popular Crested Butte's national historic district.  To help your shopping experience you'll be happy to know that a similar lodge or villa at Crested Butte would cost twice or three times that of Gunnison River Lodge.

Fishing – ESPN recently ranked the Gunnison River as "the best overall freestone trout river in America".   The famous blue ribbon waters of the Gunnison River offer trophy Brown, Rainbow, and Cutthroat trout literally within 50 feet of the house.  Within 30 minutes drive you can also be on the Taylor River, East River, Spring Creek, Lake Fork of the Gunnison, or Blue Mesa Reservoir. The possibilities are simply endless.  Also, if you happen to stay with us in the September-November timeframe you can catch the Kokanee salmon in the river as they make their way upstream to the Roaring Judy hatchery.

Nestled on the majestic blue ribbon Gunnison River, surrounded by stunning wilderness and mixed with the comfort of warm hospitality, Gunnison River Lodge is a destination for those who crave the outdoor experience . Picture yourself spending a day from dawn to dusk with great fishing, rafting, kayaking, hiking, skiing, exploring abandoned goldmines, or just relaxing on the deck and listening to the river.

Getaways in this wilderness wonderland must be defined by each individual. To some it is exploring old goldmines or simply hiking in the Rocky Mountains. A day in the sun will qualify, while others prefer the challenge of catching that once in a lifetime trophy fish.

Discover all there is to enjoy in the Gunnison area.. Find the elements of surprise by watching a bear roam through berry bushes, witness big horn sheep, elk, mule deer, and antelope grazing in the meadows. Have your spirits lifted by the sight of a magnificent bald eagle as he swoops in for a fish.  

Golf Anyone?  The Dos Rios Golf Course is right out your front door.  "Two Rivers" is a fitting name since this par-71, 6,566-yard course has water on 17 holes.  The golf course is set in the valley of the Gunnison River Basin and gets it's name because of the Gunnison River splitting in the area.  This course incorporates the natural landscape and intertwines with the tree-lined Gunnison River. 

Mountain Biking and Hiking Adventures - The Hartman Rocks, visible from the Lodge, provides a high-desert (8,000ft above sea level) riding/hiking adventure over a 6,000 acre basin. Diverse options include both miles of smooth, sage-lined singletrack to concentrated slick-rock technical sections. Trails are for bikers, runners, hikers and there are climbing/bouldering areas as well.

Plan your vacation of a lifetime around the Gunnison River Lodge and take advantage of everything Colorado has to offer.
