The Twin Lakes Inn
​& Saloon

Our History

Started in 1879 by Maggie Webber, our property has been a stagecoach stop and even a brothel. People from all over the world have stopped, dined and stayed here. Locals and visitors alike celebrate this unique Rocky Mountain rest stop.

Renewed And Ready

Renewal of The Twin Lakes Inn & Saloon also preserved much of the historic charm. Come see it for yourself next time you're visiting Lake County or taking the high road to Indy Pass & Aspen.

Get Outside

Twin Lakes Village may be among the best kept secrets in Colorado. Here, at the foot of Mt Elbert, Colorado's tallest 14,000-foot peak, you'll also find the largest glaciated lakes in Colorado. The Colorado Trail goes right through Twin Lakes. The Continental Divide Trail, too. Hiking, biking, camping, fishing, canoeing and many more outdoor adventures await you. Be in Leadville or Buena Vista in :30.

Twin Lakes is accessible all year. Things get busier from Memorial Day, as Independence Pass opens, through Fall as nature treats us to the brilliant green-to-gold turn of the aspen leaves. With events such as the Leadville Trail 100 races and Boom Days, our busiest months are always July and August. It's best to make reservations well in advance.
