RECREATION

 

The Meeker Hotel and Cafe is centrally located in the dowtown business district across from the Rio Blanco County Courthouse. We are within walking distance of several activities and attractions.

THE WHITE RIVER MUSEUM

The museum is a showcase of memorabilia defining Meeker's rich history. It's on the other side of the court house, about a two minute walk from the hotel.

FISHING

Just a short walking distance from the hotel is the famous White River one of the finest rivers in Colorado for trout fishing. There are also several lakes within a short drive where the fishing is considered excellent.

GOLF

We don't have a suburb in Meeker, but we do have a golf course! It's nine holes, so if you want 18, you'll have to play twice! This challenging and gorgeous course is located about a five minute drive from the hotel.

HORSEBACK RIDING....etc

There are plenty of horses available for riding in the beautiful Flat Tops Wilderness area about a fifteen drive from the hotel. The wilderness area is also a great place for picnics, hiking, biking swimming, tennis, snowmobiling, and cross country skiing. Not all in the same season, of course.

HUNTING

Rio Blanco County offers some of the finest elk and mule deer hunting in the country. With over 370,000 acres in the Flat Top Wilderness area finding a hunting location is easy. This is a busy time of the year for us so making reservations early is very important.

CLIMATE

Temperatures for summer and fall are mostly in the mid 80's by day and mid 40's by night. The low humidity in the summer guarantees a pleasant day no matter how high the temperature climbs.  As expected, there's lots of snow in the winter months and temperatures can drop to zero, but there's rarely a gray day. After all, Colorado averages 300 days of sunshine per year.
