Colorado is most famous now for its purple mountain Majesties and world-class outdoor recreation opportunities, but once upon a time, the Centennial State was known for being part of the “wild west” as well as a mecca for gold and other precious materials. While nods at the wild west can be found peppered about the state, we found one hotel that makes us feel like we live in those colorful yet rustic times, which is the charming Browns Canyon Inn:

Located in beautiful Salida, the equally beautiful Browns Canyon Inn is a Colorado treasure that may look unassuming on the outside but is anything but.

Billed as being “Salida’s Best Hotel,” the Browns Canyon Inn is family-owned and centrally located, making it the perfect place to stay whether you plan to hit the nearby hot springs, slopes, or dining and shopping.

In addition to the rustic touches in each guest room, Browns Canyon also has rustic furniture and fixtures all around the premises, making for an even more unique stay.

While the Browns’ charm and cleanliness are reason enough to stay, the Inn also offers a complimentary breakfast, an on-site European garden, and an outdoor hot tub.
