We usually stay at the golden rim, and park in the back.
There's also the sportsman lodge. Can't remember what the rates were, but it was very reasonable.

I like the Golden Rim:
-Parking in back
-Accommodate larger trailers
-Upper & Lower rooms
-Great lounge, good food, Highly recommend the "Table Saw" Hamburger, plus they have a huge selection of Sledding Dvd played on big screen while you eat & Drink
-Indoor pool & Hot Tub
-Sledder rates
- Improved highway out front, not so much a death turn into hotel now
- Rental shop on site, right next door, good for parts if your a Doo head
-Best of all they support the local club

Haven't stayed anywhere but while in Golden....if I had to rate it, I'd say 7/10 for sledder accommodations, cuz let's face it, I'm sledding longer than I'm sleeping while outta town;) Can anyone elaborate if there are big screens in the rooms yet, I had heard rumor that they have renovated the Rim....

With the amount of motels in Golden on and off the strip you shouldn't have a tough time finding a place to rest your head Larry. I also have heard great things about the Golden Rim.

just putting it up there, like to see what others have tried and recommend, also security is a top priority.

Hey Big Dick

The Days Inn Golden (formerly the Golden Rim) now has LG 37" LCD HD flat screens in all guest rooms. All guest rooms likewise have new pillow top mattresses. Answering to Days Inn Canada 31 of the 81 guest rooms were fully renovated last spring; an additional 12 rooms will likewise be renovated this spring. Blessed that we haven't had to use them, we do have cameras on our parking area. And yes contrary to some comments, we continue to support the club.

Don't know if you are from Calgary but there used to be a restaurant in Calgary called Big Dick's; it was owned by Bob Whitworth who now owns Simple Simon Pies at the Farmer's Market.

So do we get cash no recipt sledders rates again ??


And 4 bucks more for a table saw burger from last spring to this summer ??

Me and the family purposely stoped on our way through so I could get one.


Let's just say I have been to golden 3 weekends this year and every stay has been either b.w or sportsman.

Sportsman Blows! Chick at front desk didn't know her own name! Toilets are sized for little people! Service sucked, pool is detached from suites! Best thing was cheap drinks at Shitty's! Sportsman needs a revamp if they want my business again!

don't recall you paying for anything anyway big dick!!! what service sucked? maybe ya need to get a smaller azz that would fit the potty! my only complaint would be small rooms but they are close to the same size as the rim. and as i recall the tub at the rim you have to go outside also. so in otherwords what are u complaining about.



and besides i thought you where going out to ranger this am. looks like yer BS'n again.
