Prospector Motel

Twelve ground-level rooms form the core of Prospector Motel, a recently renovated lodging option situated directly on Silverton’s main street. The property offers a variety of layouts, including options with two queen beds or single king and queen configurations. Guests benefit from complimentary Wi-Fi, direct TV, and ample parking that accommodates trailers. The motel welcomes dogs in many of its rooms, allowing pets to join owners on nearby trails or jeep rides. Fresh paint, new carpeting, and updated bathrooms characterize the modernized interiors, while comfortable mattresses ensure restful sleep despite the town's quiet evening atmosphere. Located steps from Silverton’s shops, restaurants, groceries, and museums, the motel serves as a convenient base for exploring the San Juan Mountains. It provides easy access to 4X4 trails and Silverton Mountain heli-skiing, with lower rates available during the spring and fall seasons. The on-site staff is noted for being friendly and personable, managing check-in from an office just down the block. This unpretentious property combines historic mining-town charm with modern amenities, offering an economical stay within walking distance of downtown activities.
