The Stone House Inn

Book Now!

​Your Home Base for Adventure!

The Stone House Inn - in historic downtown Crawford, Colorado - offers the finest and most central accommodations available for your exploration of the wonders of western Colorado - including the marvelous North Rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park.

The Inn is crafted to offer comfort, privacy & a measure of luxury.  All rooms offer a charming and tasteful ambiance and feature private entrances & baths. Each room features an exceptionally comfortable Amish-made queen-sized bed, a cozy sitting area, large screen television (with movies & television streaming services) and luxurious bathing facilities; along with a refrigerator (with separate freezer), microwave, coffee & tea making facilities and a selection of fine complimentary coffees & teas.  

The Inn's attractively-landscaped outdoor areas are a favorite spot for relaxation. Our guests love sitting on the porch swing, or in rocking chairs, with a glass of wine or a frosty mug of beer, while watching the world go by.  The secluded & shady seating area under the apple tree is an ideal spot to visit or catch up with a good book.
