It is always, always a pleasure to stay at Chautauqua. From check-in to check-out everything was smooth and top notch. You absolutely can not beat the restaurant on site. The food is fantastic and special requests are handled quickly and with care. Love staying and eating and hiking at Chautauqua every single time!

Clean, comfortable cabins with all the necessary amenities, but with a historical/throw-back feel. Clean, well maintained property. Nice play area for the kids. Tennis and basketball courts. A little general store with ice cream. The dining hall is very popular. No TV, but that wasn't an issue for us. The wi-fi worked fine. The park and hiking trails are always busy, but the rental cabins are on quiet, leafy streets. Beautiful views and access to the Flatirons right from your doorstep. A short drive to the Rockies to the West. The only negative for me was that the parking was VERY tight. We rented cabin 220, and the only way out was to back out the way we came in. Thankfully our large rental SUV had a modern camera setup, otherwise, it would have been tough. Still, just a great place to stay.

Had a wonderful time on property - pet friendly - easy access to hiking, great access to meals at the Dining Hall. The Thanksgiving dinner was very well done. The unit was very clean and the bed was one of the most comfortable of any bed in any accommodation. A supplemental heater would be great as the primary heater could not quite heat the kitchen and bath to a level that would be expected, but we made it work.

The property is beautiful and for a family it works really well as there are hiking trails, a park, and a great play area. The only issue was our cottage had a water heater that was on demand and not a tank which led to less than ideal temps for showers. For a family with little ones that isn't a great option.

I am very happy that I booked this accommodation. I really enjoyed the nature around the lodging and the room was lovely. It was nice to have a small kitchen in the room. The staff were very helpful and responsive. I was staying in a building with several units. In the future I would stay in an upstairs unit or a stand alone cottage. There was someone above me who walked very heavy on their feet. Saving grace was that we were on the same schedule. I would definitely stay at this place again,

The Chatauqua is a unique historic property offering fairly modern cabins and access to hiking and historic dining. We booked a Queen cabin, which turned out to be a connected duplex unit and both nights we had really loud neighbors we could hear on the separated porch and in the unit. If you stay, request a non-duplex. Not the Chatauqua’s fault, just clueless people. Have a drink at the bar; the hiking is gorgeous.

It was wonderful to stay so close to Chautauqua walking/hiking trails! The bar in the dining hall was fun and accommodating! The restaurant was awful! Our food was poor and expensive. Basically, I ate a 3inch square of waffle (the chicken was inedible) for $26.00! Our cottage was clean but the HVAC system was loud and inefficient. We did not sleep well and had to leave early to get home for some rest 😞 Didn’t mind not having a dishwasher or television but not sure that was noted in reservation. Guess we need to double check next time. Overall, we’d rate the cottage a 3!

Magical place. Because the building i was in was old, despite being nicely renovated, sound does travel from second floor to first. People that are sensitive to normal human walking, which is unavoidable, should prob either stay on the second floor or stay elsewhere

First: I was asked to change cottages over the nights I booked. I adjusted reservation so that it was shortened, but then room was not ready when expected and I was not called to come get key until 5:41 PM, at which point the room had been ready for awhile, but the promised phone call or text to let me know did not happen. There was no apology when it was explained what happened. It was a communication error which can happen, but reading these reviews, it's not the first time that the room wasn't ready when expected and the communication over it simply didn't happen. I love this place, and think everyone should experience it for an extended amount of time.

This place is truly a gift. Live music, nature, and a great restaurant. Our cottage was adorable with a huge front porch and beautifully furnished. The staff members are exceptional. We also took advantage of a free history tour and a yoga class in the garden. Hiking trails are behind the property and can’t be beat. Quick drive to downtown Boulder. Highly highly recommend this place!!
