Thunderbird Lodge: Family-Friendly outdoor adventure

Meet your hosts, Carey and Tony, and our quickly growing family (3 kids, their spouses and 4 grandkids). We love spending time at Thunderbird Lodge making memories.  Whether it's playing, working or just taking in the views - we are grateful for every minute we get to spend at the cabin.

Testimonials

We can't express how wonderful you made our stay at your family-friendly lodging—truly above and beyond our expectations! We enjoyed all of the trails on UTVs, and we also took our Harleys, putting on close to 1,000 miles touring this gorgeous area. Every corner was breathtaking and jaw-dropping. We encountered a lot of wildlife and pleasant locals, all while taking advantage of military discounts for our stay!

We are so grateful to call this place home, and I am always in awe of the beauty it holds. How blessed we are to bring our baby here for the first of many times. We cannot wait to show him all the family-friendly lodging options and outdoor adventures Meeker has to offer, especially since we can take advantage of military discounts during our stay.

Our third year here and once again we had a wonderful time at this family-friendly lodging. We adored the kitchen remodel and all of the updates, especially the Blackstone! We enjoyed many outdoor adventures on the ATV trails, watching the storms come through and the beautiful sunsets. Plus, we appreciated the military discounts that made our stay even better.

An unbelievable experience! Incredible views, very secluded, and a night sky that's unforgettable. This family-friendly lodging is perfect for outdoor adventures, so bring a telescope and a camera! Plus, don’t forget to ask about military discounts for your stay. - Richard (Aug 2021)

This beautiful remote location is perfect for family-friendly lodging and outdoor adventures. Everything is very well stocked and clean, making it ideal for families. The kitchen has everything you would ever need to cook with, and the entire place is very user-friendly, complete with lots of labeling and instructions. Plus, military discounts are available for those who serve.

This place is amazing. Tony and his wife have thought of everything, from the big stuff to the small little details, ensuring you have a great stay. It's also a fantastic option for family-friendly lodging, especially with military discounts available. Not to mention the gorgeous views and prime location, perfect for outdoor adventures. I would recommend this place to anyone and can’t say enough good things about our stay. - Steve (May 2022)

Has to be the best view in the area! Everyone who visited us for the wedding loved it. It is absolutely stunning and worth the little drive out of town. You can spot elk, deer, and turkeys everywhere along the way! With plenty of comfortable sleeping areas, this family-friendly lodging is perfect for a large family or two smaller families. Plus, they offer military discounts, making it even more appealing for those looking for an outdoor adventure. Highly recommend! - Taylor (April 2021)

Lovely visit. The cabin was so homey and comfortable, making it perfect for our family-friendly lodging needs. The views were amazing, and the proximity to fishing, hiking, and other outdoor adventures was better than expected. We wish we could go back to day one of our vacation. Thank you, Tony and Carrie, for sharing your beautiful vacation home with us. We can’t wait to come back, especially knowing you offer military discounts. - Lori (August 2020)

Great home, very well equipped, and a wonderful place to get away from it all yet not too isolated (TV, wireless). I highly recommend Thunderbird Lodge for anyone seeking family-friendly lodging who wants to hike, fish, and experience all the beauty of the Flat Tops area while still enjoying the comforts of home. Plus, they offer military discounts, making it an even better choice for families. Tony was easy to connect with and very helpful throughout our stay, ensuring we had all the outdoor adventures we desired.
