About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Basecamp for Adventurers

Our home is the original ranch home for the surrounding property. It's a unique space and not a model home but we've made it a place that will be comfortable, restful, and functional for visitors. The main dining area was once the mess hall for the local ranch hands.
Our home is ideal for climbers, mountain bikers, skiers, fishing headquarters, and hunters. If you are looking for the essence of potpourri and a hotel environment we're not likely the home for you.
Our family bases all of our adventures out of this home and we're up for powder days, single track, redpointing, and enjoying the valley. We have two dogs that are well behaved and we'd love your dogs if they are similar. If this description fits you we think you'll find our home perfect as your base camp.

Overall Very Nice.
Overall it was a great place. But there is a major inaccuracy in the description. The amenities said there was a hot tub. There was not. Since this was a ski vacation this was a major issue.

Spacious and clean. Fabulous fenced in backyard! Kitchen was fully equipped with the dishes, pans, and tools we needed. Wish I had been able to make the time to take advantage of the deep tub in the master bedroom’s bathroom.

We were staying in Gunnison to celebrate our son’s college graduation. This cute home was spacious, comfortable, and very close to everything! We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and all the thoughtful amenities at the house. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Nice 3 bedroom with 3 bathrooms
All was great, except need new coffee pot. Coffee took a verrrry long time to brew. Tough went you want to get moving early and get out of house. Work was being done on property, but not too interfering. Clean and pleased with kitchen supplies.
