Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaParking gets a bit tight when cabins are full. That very welcome hot tub can also be noisy as it's in the room and it heats all day. It's not obnoxious and not an issue if you're not in during the day, but I did notice. Definitely preferable to not having it or having to go to an outside hot tub, and not enough to ruin my trip, but something to be aware of.
When we first arrived, I was concerned about being off the river, but it turned out great. You're far enough off the strip to be able to get in/out easily, but also within easy distance to park entrance and all amenities. Had a big snow storm come in during stay and staff got pathways cleared and salted quickly. Room size was perfect for what it included. Bed comfy, all kitchen apps worked, private hot tub very welcome at the end of the day. This is on the list for next time coming up to Estes/Rocky.

United States of AmericaLoved everything!
This was our second stay at Mountain Shadows Resort and we loved it as much as our first stay. Very romantic cabin with a fireplace, hot tub and very comfortable bed. We got to see wildlife out our window each morning. Charles was very helpful at check in. Good and fast communication any time we had questions and at check out. We plan on making this our annual retreat.

United States of AmericaHot tub pump runs for a long time each day, so if you’re staying in the cabin during the day, it’s loud and hard to ignore. Chlorine smell from the hot tub was quite noticeable, would have been nice to open the windows.
Clean cabin with comfortable bed. Owner was responsive and offered lots of information about the area. Great location for getting to RNP.

United States of AmericaThe hot tub takes about an hour to warm up to a good temperature after turning it on. Maybe this is due to the mountains cooling the water in the area, I'm not sure. Make sure you turn on the hot tub and turn it up to above 100 F an hour before you want to get in it.
The bed was insanely comfy! The sheets were so soft! The fireplace was a dream! Location was also great. Staff provided good recommendations for where to eat. Also loved being able to see the mountains out of one of the windows.

United States of America• The rooms are very basic and simple • Really bad internet access • Kitchen is underwhelming • Description is a bit overenthusiastic: no flower gardens are in front. Instead, there is a dirt access road • It was super hot in the room (due to the hot tub). Even after we turned it off, the small window A/C unit could not cool down the room and get rid of the humidity enough for a comfortable night of sleep. • We could not cool down the room (we did not want to leave the A/C on while out), and also, we could not keep the door open since there was no net to prevent flies/mosquitos from coming in. • All in all, who would build a large hot tub in the middle of a bedroom? That's insane. You could probably get a better place for the same money.
The host was very friendly and helpful. Nice seclusion, privacy, parking, location.
