Looks like we might try to spend a month or so in Lake City, CO - Talk to me about where to stay.
I have been before but did not stay in the town - Love it though :-)
IMHO it might be one of the last of the Undiscovered spots in Colorado? Well not Estes Park!
Where have you stayed what did you like not like - River and Town would be the Top Priorities - Almost bought a house there 12 years ago.
Give me your scoop,

Hey Bill,
It's been a while, and would certainly go back to Castle Lakes Campground Resort. Not close to town, but not far away either. Wooded sites, lakes on the property, sort of rustic but with amenities.
Claim to fame? 4x4 trails. The area there around Lake City has a lot to offer. Castle Lakes is on the Cinnamon Pass Rd, so that would be a great place to check out. IIRC, there's Jeep/ATV rentals available in Lake City. Which is tiny. Not a lot there, artsy craftsy stuff.
What didn't I like? Coming down Slumgullion Pass!! That is one steep hill. I'd come in from the north/Gunnison side if/when I go back.
