Fodor's Expert Review Chipeta Solar Springs Resort and Spa
304 S. Lena St., Ridgway, Colorado, 81432, USA
Enjoy the stunning views from the decks of the dramatic Southwestern-style adobe rooms and suites, which have rough-hewn log beds and hand-painted Mexican tiles. For extended stays, there are eight condos complete with full kitchens; some have fireplaces, balconies, and private hot tubs. The inn is a great hub for year-round outdoor activities in this stretch of the San Juan Mountains. When you're finished hiking or biking, return to the spa for a little pampering or a drink on the rooftop bar in summer. The on-site Four Corners Restaurant is open daily for breakfast and most nights for dinner, and serves fish, meat, and veggie specialties. The restaurant is closed for dinner on Thursday.
