Whether you're planning a trip to Georgetown or not, you'll probably want to once you've found this place! I can't recommend this little inn right next to the creek enough.
The Clear Creek Inn feels like a mix between a bed and breakfast and a lodge. It is owned by a father and son, and their vision is well articulated -- the cozily adorned common space, the mountain themed rooms decorated thoughtfully with Colorado artwork (each have a peak name etc), the cool little adjoining glass shop, and let's not forget the hot tub overlooking the bustling creek.
This place is perfect for nature enthusiasts, the couple on a romantic getaway, or folks interested in a little history - Georgetown is such a wonderful town to see, hear, and explore with it's placards and museums, the train whistle beckoning you from the surrounding mountains, and the lovely little shops and houses built in the 1800s.
I didn't really know what I was in for when I booked this but I will now be recommending it to all my friends. It's not far from trailheads on Guanella pass, and just a bit further up into the mountains on 70 will get you to the slopes. Being in little old Georgetown makes the Clear Creek Inn more affordable, more quaint, and a clear winner over alternatives up the road. If you've read this far, book it. You...
Read moreIt is hard to say enough good things about the Clear Creek Inn. First off, if you hate the Denver commute on I-70, then this place will be your savior. We have visited for two years now due to the close location to Loveland for skiing. If you are looking for more than the typical motel experience in a warm and welcoming home-like feel, then Clear Creek a try. Cost is comparable to a typical hotel room, but you get so much more bang for the buck. The staff are very chill and they go above and beyond to meet our needs. The Inn is immaculately clean and the interior is decorated like a high end mountain home. The rooms are comfortable and private with keypad locks so no need to remember room cards or keys. With only 4 rooms to rent, this is a fantastic place to bring close friends and family members in a group while keeping your privacy. The hot tub on the second level is awesome and the mountain views are unlike anywhere else we have stayed. Only a block from several restaurants and shops in historic Georgetown, this place offers a superb location no matter the season. There is even a hiking path with a beautiful waterfall just a couple blocks away. Reach out to the owners as they will really try to do anything to make your...
Read moreAfter about 16 hours on the road starting from Little Rock, Arkansas on our way to Salt Lake City, Utah. We were both very wary and exhausted. At 2am in the morning we knocked on the clear creek inn and were quickly invited inside. Despite the dark cold night the environment was warm and inviting. The charming glass shop could entertain me for hours. Glass jars, flowers and other beautiful art. We quickly checked in and went up to our incredible room. The room was beautifully furnished and the sheets were so soft. Despite our tiredness we spent multiple hours in the hot tub enjoying the dark cold night. In the morning the deliciousness of fresh ground coffee brought our spirits back to life. Of course we were amazed by the view. And again spent multiple hours in the hot tub enjoying the scenery and sounds of the running creek. The land around the inn was so beautiful and there were many spots to sit and enjoy our coffee and nature. This place will always hold a special spot in my heart as it was so incredible. And of course we missed check out but our host was very understanding. I already miss this place and plan on taking as many members of my family...
