"My spouse and I have visited B&Bs that were more elegant and more tranquil than Mountain Goat Lodge--but seldom have we enjoyed a more comfortable stay and more scenic location than our recent "just passing through" visit to this establishment. Gina's skills as a proprietor were exemplary--chatting with guests, ensuring our comfort, dealing (promptly and expeditiously) with problems, and preparing an excellent breakfast. We enjoyed the "goats-and-chickens-view" options, and the degree to which our dog was welcomed (even in a "full house" with other fellow dog-travelers). Not to be missed: the astonishing and spectacular dark and starry skies (and the goat yogurt!). The Mountain Goat Lodge is a great choice as a stop near Salida (one of the more charming Colorado small towns) or as a getaway destination on its own."
