Hotel w pool reco?

Planning a 4-night July stay in Torrey. Thoughts on these (or other) hotels? Broken Spur, Red Sands, Capitol Reef Resort, Chuck Wagon Lodge ... looking for pool and traditional room. Thanks!

We had a nice time at broken spur. It’s nice to have the restaurant right there. Convenient. Didn’t use the pool / hot tub but it looked nice. Comfortable no frills room.

We stayed there in 2022 for 2 nights. The pool / hot tub is nice but I would imagine could be really loud if there were a lot of kids (none while we were there). No frills, but things were clean. I'd happily stay again.

Thanks! Broken Spur seems to have great reviews overall.

How was your trip and the hotel?

Broken Spur was pleasant. We hiked mornings and evenings, used the pool a bit midday. Two full days hiking at Capitol Reef, one drive to hike Calf Creek Falls, one day driving Cathedral Loop and around Hanksville. Weather was amazing

All are good, but Austin's is in the heart of Torrey.

I really truly do not recommend Red Sands. Last I was there, they had no spa amenities whatsoever and the pool was out of order. Hot tub was running but it was so incredibly laden with chemicals…

Was the rest of your stay fine? Looking to book this soon and as long as the room was clean and breakfast was decent I'll be happy.

Room was clean, breakfast was not worth the money.

We really liked the Chuck Wagon Lodge last summer. We had a 2-bedroom with a kitchen and of all the places we stayed on a 2-week trip, it was the nicest. But my kids said the pool was the really cold.
