Quiet Location
Lodge was in the mountain village not in Telluride itself. Great transportation via the gondola over to the city, but don’t take it if you’re afraid of heights! Sleeping room itself was small but the bathroom was huge! I was disappointed that with all the empty rooms they couldn’t have put us in a unit with a better view. This one was located on the back of the lodge under the stairs!
Traveler's tip on dining
Don’t waste your money on the highly rated Rustico Ristorante in Telluride. Wines and food was overpriced, prices were skimpy and food was mostly flavorless or oversalted. The stone oven pizzas looked good - wish I would have tried that instead.

Wonderful Get Away
The Bear Creek Lodge is a very nice property. It is one of the only Telluride properties we found that did not charge a resort fee and had free on-site parking. Our room was clean and very comfortable, but was a lock-off to a larger suite and was a little small. The staff at the Lodge was friendly and helpful. The Lodge has a nice fitness center and pool/spa area. There was some construction by the pool. The only surprise was the Lodge is located further from the Village Gondola than we expected. However the Bear Creek shuttle service was very responsive.
Traveler's tip on getting the most out of your stay
There is free coffee & tea in the lobby every morning. The Village Market is a great place to buy food & provisions. There is a private "people mover" at the Lodge that takes you to the ski run. It would be great in winter, but really did not help much in summer. Plan to walk a lot or use the shuttle. Check out Emilio’s for great Mexican food & margaritas and Brown Dog Pizza for a fun atmosphere and reasonably priced quality pub fare.

Great time!
Our trip was a short honeymoon for my husband and I. Everything was awesome! We went the week of Aug 10th so the area is a little cheaper due to off season so that was helpfull since it’s pretty pricey other times. The room was just as I was expecting, except the bathroom was better than expected. I didnt realize when I book this stay that it is a condo building. But no problems with that though. The staff were extra helpfull. The guy working the front desk in the daytime had great customer service. He made us feel like important guests. The only minor complaint is that we arrived after the 11pm closure of the front desk and had a hard time getting to our room. We were on the back side of the building and were not given directions to get to the door. ( and there was no lighting to see the path on the side of the building. It just looked like bushes.) Although they did leave us what we needed to get in and settled. I will recomend the Bear Creek Lodge to anyone I know going to Telluride/Mtn Village.
Traveler's tip on dining
Tons of restaurants in Mtn Village and in Telluride. The New Sheraton in Telluride is awesome. Great staff and wonderful food!! Floradora had an awesome steak and crab leg meal also. Other places are good too this was where we went for a nice breakfast (Sheraton) and just by chance nice dinner. (Floradora)Too many places to mention them all. You will just find out for your self! Make sure you go to the end of town to see the house built above the waterfall. Very cool!
