There are a few resupply stores in town, including Platte River Outfitters, Dollar General, and Rosalie's Market (a small grocery with fresh produce and meat). We have a collection of bicycles available for our guests to use if they want to give their feet a rest as they explore Bailey. Instacart service is also available from the grocery stores in Conifer.
Hostel lodging is reserved only via telephone or email. If you would like to book via email, send us the guest name(s), the type of hostel lodging you are looking for, and your mobile number. We will make the reservation and send you a payment link to pay for it. Full payment for lodging costs is due at the time of booking.
​
If your arrival date changes and we have availability on the new date we will be as flexible as possible to accommodate a date change. See our terms and conditions on the availability page for full hostel cancellation or date change details.​​​
RESUPPLY BOX INSTRUCTIONS
We will accept and hold resupply boxes for reserved guests at no additional charge. Please send your packages via:
​
USPS to P.O. Box 629, Bailey, CO 80421 (any box sent via the Post Office MUST include the P.O. Box, not our street address --USPS will not deliver it to the building!).
​
or
​
FedEx/UPS to 59786 US Highway 285, Bailey, CO 80421 (these carriers will deliver directly to the Lodge).
Please address your package to Two Bridges Lodge, Attn: [Your Name and arrival date] so we will know whose it is. It also helps if you put your name and arrival date on the small side of the box.
​
Make sure you allow enough time ahead of your arrival in Bailey (and maybe a day or two earlier in case you move faster than anticipated) for the box to arrive. We have had hikers beat their boxes in and then leave before the box arrives. We pick up the Post Office boxes a few times a week and hold them in our office for your arrival. And remember, the Post Office closes at noon on Saturday and does not reopen until Monday morning.
​
We will hold boxes up to 2 weeks after your indicated arrival date, then they go into the hiker box if not claimed.
