EXPLORE OUR SUITES

Sun Cross

The Even Keel Lodge is a home away from home, with three suites, in the heart of Buena Vista.  It is aptly named after the state of a ship that allows for smooooooth sailing! We come from a love for water and viking culture. The lodge is located above Buena Vista's newest food truck to brick and mortar, The Buena Viking! Needless to say, we're having fun keeping the ship upright.

THE CROWSNEST PENTHOUSE SUITE

The Crow’s Nest - the highest point on a ship ensuring the widest field of views. In this case, our top level two-bed, two-bath apartment creates a true home away from home and adventure base camp for up to six people.

This south facing studio is quaint, simple, and cozy.  Inspired by Skadi, a Norse Goddess associated with bowhunting, skiing, winter, and mountains, this studio keeps you connected to the natural world through proximity to all Chaffee County has to offer.

DOWNSTAIRS

When you stay at The Even Keel Lodge, you’ll be sleeping above one of Buena Vista’s most popular burger and bar hang-out spots. Much like the lodge, The Buena Viking Restaurant instills a passion in celebrating the mountains that surround and the river that flows. Some may argue the best part is meeting back up with food, drink, and tall tales of your adventures. Come eat, drink, and put your feet up at The Buena Viking!
