The ONLY place to stay in Estes Park!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/8/08
After much internet research we decided to stay at Taharaa for four nights around the 4th of July. Best lodging decision we've ever made. Taharaa is listed as a B&B but it's more like a small hotel with a great breakfast. Customer service was absolutely fantastic. When we arrived, the owners, Diane and Ken, immediately made us feel at home. We started with a delicious glass of merlot and met several of the other guests at the complimentary cocktail hour (5:30-6:30 pm. The innkeeper for the evening, Pam, asked if we had dinner plans for the next few days....she recommended several local restaurants and made the reservations for us...all were great choices. Next morning we weren't sure what to expect for breakfast...we've had complimentary breakfasts before and have never been happy with them...this, however, was a different story entirely. Diane cooks up wonderful breakfasts, different every day and accompanied with fresh fruit, granola, fresh coffee, several juices and pastries. Plenty of nutritious food to get a good start on the RMNP hikes! This was our home for five days in Estes park and I can't imagine a better experience...Taharaa is the only place we've ever stayed where the owner gave us a big hug when we left! Truly, the only place to consider in Estes Park
