"My spouse and I stayed 3 nights in mid-Sept in the lodge which is at the top and back of the property. The driveway up to the top is direly in need of repair. In selecting this property I failed to read reviews; only looked at stars, price and location. So I was a little surprised to discover that the mission of the establishment is to help people disconnect from electronics and a fast pace of life. The name Dao House should have given me a clue. The lodge/room is clean, beds comfy, bath adequate but shower water pressure only okay. The lodge reception area is poorly lit but open with sofas and chairs. No daily housekeeping. No a/c but honestly, didn’t need it while sleeping—nighttime temps were in mid 50s. So leaving the windows open to the balcony for a couple of hours cooled the room sufficiently enabling us to sleep with ceiling fan on and windows closed. The balcony is nice but it is not private; there are no dividers between rooms. The room has NO coffee maker, microwave or mini-fridge. There is a small community mini-fridge and microwave in a banquet room. In the morning there’s a small pot of coffee, hot water for tea, and cut pastry or muffins and fruit. The wi-fi is super slow. Lodgers are asked to limit streaming because it hinders others’ internet access. Being 6-7 miles beyond Estes Park there was no T-Mobile cell service. If you want to slow down and be disconnected from life I can recommend DH. For staying connected to life, stay in Estes Pa"
