The White Eagle Village

 
The White Eagle Village is nestled at the foot of four 14,000 ft mountain peaks.
 

The White Eagle Village is a Conference/Retreat Center and Inn located four miles west of Crestone, Colorado and is nestled at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.  Let us accomodate you on your visit to tranquil, majestic Crestone.  Here you are nestled between four 14,000 foot peaks, where you can experience the Rockies in ways toursts usually don't see!

Lodging Style and Amenities

We are a 40-room lodge, accomodating travelers for personal retreats, conferences, concerts, dinners, events, and gatherings.  Nightly rooms  are large with two double or queen size beds each with a private bath. For those who prefer simpler accommodations, we have hostel rooms. These are shared rooms, up to three single beds per room.  The accommodations are simple and clean. We are a smoke-free facility so the air is also clean. We also have a community kitchen where you can cook and refridgerate your food. Many come to the White Eagle for long term retreats and really appreciate this option.

Our facility features three conference rooms, including a large 1421 sq. ft. conference room with seating for up to 140 participants.  This room has a 180 sq. ft. stage at one end (with a lectern) and a fireplace at the other end of the room.  It is located next to the dining room and is also available for private dining for large groups. There is no additional fee for the basic use of the conference room if ten or more rooms are booked for an event.

Free wireless internet is available for all of our guests!

We have quality onsite massage and acupuncture available onsite as well, for both scheduled and "drop-in" visitors.

We also feature art from local artists in the community.
