Amazing place to stay. We stayed here while cycling the great divide mountainbike route ( it is on the route) and absolute worth it. Lovely cabin with great bed, shower etc, all very clean and nicely decorated. Food in the restaurant is really great. Fresh veggies and just quality food really worth riding the eventual extra mile for. Lots of variations on the menu as well ( vegetarian options!)so especially for fellow cyclists who are tired and can use a decent meal. This is the place to go. Best food we ate in weeks! And to top it off: very friendly staff. 100% recommend! We planned to stay one night but ended up staying three. Plan your rest day here and you will be very happy! Sit on the terrace, enjoy the view!

When you travel by bike you don't have many options. Your range is limited and in this environment you make do with what you come across. So also in the case of the lava mountain lodge. We were in need of a good meal. Upon entering we did not immediately feel welcome. Would they prefer no one there (we were the only ones). Nevertheless, we took a seat and we were approached in a friendly manner, but it did not feel sincere.

We ordered our food and drinks (see below) and filled our empty stomachs.

Before we left we visited the toilet. It was really too dirty to visit actually. Smelled and the floor was wet. A real shame.

The restaurant looks good inside. But if you zoom in and make contact, it is disappointing.

our advice: drive on to Crooked Creek Guest Ranch, everything is better there: the food, the view, the people! well worth the extra miles!
