Second visit as enchanting as the first
This was our second visit to Enchanted Retreat and it was like coming back to enjoy an old friend. We love it here. We purposely set our intentions on finding peace, solitude and relaxation. Nancy and Tom created a space, a retreat where all this is possible with the luxury of a fine built custom home on BEAUTIFUL acreage! It is truly a magical place. One must experience it to understand. Warmth, love and kindness is ever present.

Another Spectacular Stay
We keep returning to this beautiful home situated in the most incredible spot. The views are second to none, and the house is an architectural masterpiece that is absolutely immaculate. Nancy, the host, is a generous, kind person, and has stocked every drawer, closet, and cabinet with everything anyone would use to cook well and be comfortable. Thank you for sharing your amazing home!

Wonderful stay!
We really enjoyed our stay, it was one of the highlights of our trip! The house was clean and comfortable, and we loved having dinner on the deck overlooking the meadow and mountains, watching the sunset (Zuma Foods has great prepared food to go). It was also a great location for going to Mesa Verde and Telluride.

Wonderful place to stay!
We wanted to get away for a quiet week and it was exactly what was needed. A beautiful, comfortable, well-kept home on a very large piece of land far away from the noise and commotion of every day life. Wonderful scenery from every side; trails to hike, and stars to watch ... wildlife, it has it all. Mostly blessed peace! Thank you!

This was the perfect place for my wife and I during our visit to Mesa Verde National Park. It was just right for two people with every thing we needed to come back to after visiting the park and other great places in the area. We highly reccommend it to anybody visiting the area.

Fantastic Property
We wholeheartedly agree with all of the previous five star ratings! Truly the Enchanted Retreat was designed, built, and furnished by craftsmen and artists. It is immaculately clean and maintained. Because it is on 95 acres it is so peaceful and quiet with a magnificent night sky. We are already planning our next trip.

Beautiful, serene home
Enchanted retreat was a wonderful place for our anniversary get-away. The home is designed with large windows and scenic views of the mountains, is impeccably clean, and has almost anything that a guest could need. Nancy and Tom were great hosts that accommodated us with a late night check-in after our numerous flight delays, and promptly addressed a mechanical issue. Overall we loved our stay and hope to be able to visit again.

Can't say enough good things about Enchanted Retreat
Breath-taking! The home, the furnishings, the acreage, the owners, all combined created such a magical place. Everywhere we turned we were amazed at how well the home was constructed, maintained and designed, inside and out. The meadows were especially fun to navigate. We just don't have the perfect words to describe our PERFECT vacation. Mancos artists are fabulous too. Thank you so much for our stay in the Enchanted Retreat. We will be back!

Serene, Gorgeous Mountain Home
We didn't want to leave! The home is designed beautifully, and everything looks brand new. Spotlessly clean and very well-stocked. The open, sweeping views are some of the best we have seen. Spent time outside grilling and enjoying the peace and quiet. The hostess, Nancy, was most welcoming and made herself available. We absolutely will stay again when in the area.

True to its name...Enchanted Retreat
We chose to visit this property based on a referral from friends...it did not disappoint! Great 270 degree views of both sunrise and sunset. The open, circular and contemporary layout matched our style perfectly! Gardens and grounds were stunning! Our hosts were engaging, responsive and helpful. This property is in more of a remote setting but serves perfectly as a central outpost for visiting the many sites of the 4 corners! We hope to return again soon!

Simply amazing!
We've stayed at many VRBO properties and this one is now on the top of our list. It was exactly as described, and than some. We enjoyed exploring the trails that lead around the property and every morning and evening on the wrap around porch. The owners were very helpful and friendly and we enjoyed meeting them at the beginning of our trip. Thank you again Tom and Nancy!

Best VRBO we've found yet!
We own two VRBO's and travel by VRBO almost exclusively when we can. This was a FIND! The most charming and well appointed home we have stayed in via VRBO. The home is gorgeous with million dollar views and architecturally very cool. It is extremely well appointed (well beyond the average VRBO) not to mention easy and hospitable owners. In hind sight we wished we had booked for a longer stay as the home ooooozed VACATION and was less than the cost of a mediocre hotel!
