4.6 out of 5The feel of Colorado
May 07, 2013
Celebrating our anniversary Quiet Walker Lodge gave us talk without interruption and enjoy the beautiful bluff view from the Moonlight and Roses room. Quiet Walker Lodge has a Colorado feel but it's not far from home. John and Deb, the Inn Keepers are fun and they make you feel right at home! Thank you for making our anniversary memorable!

April 23, 2013
Our first stay at QWL was absolutely wonderful. The owner, Linda, was warm and welcoming. The new innkeepers, John and Deb are friendly, helpful and they serve up a great breakfast! We stayed in the Sleeping Bear and added the brand new Hibernation Package. We enjoyed a private breakfast served in the loft adjoining our room. It was quiet and romantic. The views and the rooms are beautiful. We can't wait to stay again!!
5 out of 5Surprise 2-year anniversary
July 14, 2009
We celebrated our 2-year anniversary and he decided to do it all by himself. He would not tell me where we were going or what kind of place we were staying. As we drove up the gravel driveway to the photo you see here we were immediately greeted by Carol. She knew our names and was a ray of sunshine as we toured the lodge and our room. The smallest details were caught, the sheets were fantastic, the food amazing, the inkeepers were caring and wonderful conversationalists. We plan to go back every 6 months or so to relax. This is, by far, the BEST place I have ever stayed!

If you would like a quiet place to sare with that someone special, this is the place. Mike and Carol make you feel like family. The veiw is wonderfull. The rooms are so romantic. The special detail, the tray of cheese and the homemade pumpkin bread. The homemade breakfast with muffins and coffee cake with your meal is great. The morning and evening talks with Mike and Carol at the fireplace was very special. If you are in Iowa you must stay and enjoy the rooms, view, and the comfort of the lodge. Jester Nov.08

Innkeepers Description:
Growing up in Colorado and being high-school best friends (not sweethearts) we shared many dreams. After all the twists and turns in the landscape of life, we created a dream and vision together. Through many career changes, relocations, and other life altering events we were able to reflect on our passions and always wanted to be welcoming hosts as we love to entertain and pamper. Creating aromas in the kitchen that spill out onto the dining room floor delights both of us. Come relax with us!
