Elk Point Lodge

Eleven private, retro-themed cabins rest on the quiet side of Vallecito Reservoir in Bayfield. Most sit directly lakefront, offering guests free access to the water and complimentary non-motorized craft for paddle boarding or fishing. The property balances wooded solitude with activity, featuring a main lodge recreation room equipped for pool and movie nights. Winter visitors utilize wood-burning stoves, ice fishing on the frozen surface, or soak in hot tubs. On-site amenities include stables for horseback riding and a day spa. Located just 40 minutes northeast of Durango, the lodge serves as a central hub for day trips to Mesa Verde National Park, Pagosa Springs, and the Million Dollar Highway toward Silverton. The cabins are pet-friendly, ensuring that furry companions join the outdoor experience alongside their owners.
