Scenic Hotel in Colorado

Looking for a relatively quiet, scenic place in the mountains to stay in
Colorado for a week. I've stayed in Colorado Springs several times before
but would rather find some place less busy. Looking for a place with nearby
hiking, perhaps a lake, but also someplace to just sit on the balcony and
enjoy the view. Coming in through Denver so eastern or central CO would be
best.

Forgot to mention - Mid-August time frame.

Sure you can't change your arrival point? Go to Grand Junction and go here

Here is a spot just north and west of Fort Collins. Likely they would have
anything from hotel like rooms (nice) to single family residences for short
term rental.

A few years ago we stayed at the Fawn Valley Inn in Estes Park. It was
quite nice. It was quite nice. We could sit on the balcony and view the
mountains. Elk come right through the property. It is just outside the
entrance to and is surround by Rocky Mountain National Park. There are
lots of nice hiking trials in the park. Almost next door to the hotel is
a stable with horse back trail rides up the mountain. I enjoyed my stay
there.

We stayed at the Trail Ridge Inn in Estes Park a few years ago. Nothing
fancy but clean and close to the entrance to RMNP.

Redstone, south of Glenwood Springs, is a very nice location. We had a
family reunion at the Redstone Cliffs Lodge and were pleased. If you
want to spend more, the Redstone Inn is fancy and has gourmet food!
