Dotted with log cabins, the interiors of Dunton Hot Springs are warm, cozy, and distinctly western: think cast iron fireplaces, faux bear rugs, modern rocking chairs, painted ox skulls and lassos hung from the walls. One cabin even has tree-trunk side tables. Old rusty trucks and wagons serve as decorative accents throughout the landscape.
Meanwhile, the River Camp (which is four miles away from the main lodging center), is adorned with glamping tents.

The list of activity options at Dunton Hot Springs is long: in addition to the aforementioned hot springs, there’s hiking, fly-fishing, horseback riding, ice skating, snowshoeing trails, cross country skiing, and ice hockey equipment for when the river freezes over. Every night is an apt one for stargazing, even the coldest.

After all that, are you ready to plan a Colorado road trip yet?
