The sunsets!
When we first arrived, we were blown away by the mountain range views on the way up to the property! On arrival, we were a bit concerned because of the condition of the paint on the exterior of the property but once we open the door, we saw that it had been fully redone inside. This is a newer property and so a lot of the “pass it along” things from a longer history of Vrbo guest stays are absent. Things like a wide array of condiments, spices, oils, butter and kitchen tools and pass it along detergent and softener for the laundry (owner left 2 tide style pods for guest use)… But it was very clean and very nice. Some great added touches were the record player and lots of records as well as some puzzles that we made great use of at the dining table. Worthy of a second mention…the deck had phenomenal views of the sunsets as did the entire upstairs! Overall I would say this I a definite recommend that will mature like a fine wine with a bit of time. Thank to the owner for being available to answer questions early in our stay.

Lovely, simple location
This was a smaller cabin than we expected, but it was perfect for our family of three. The views and quiet surroundings were wonderful. We knew the elevation of the location, and our kiddo has been at elevation, but if you have littles, be prepared to keep an eye on them or choose a different place because the altitude sickness is a possibility. It affected our little guy a bit and we had to spend more time at a lower elevation for him.

Great getaway!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We fell in love with Ridgway and Ouray. We were pleasantly surprised by the location of the property. We did not expect to be so far from town on a dirt road, but we actually loved the location. The views from the drive and the property are amazing.

Ladies Getaway
My mom and I stayed here with two of our best friends for a long girls weekend. What a beautiful home!! So peaceful, clean, super soft sheets and comfy beds, great views, nice kitchen, and we loved listening to the records they had. We even saw some deer around the property in the evening. Our host sent us clear instructions and was quick to respond to a couple questions we had. We will definitely come back here next time we visit Ouray!

Our stay in Ridgway was fabulous - enjoyed sitting out on the deck and just admiring the view! Place was super clean, very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Would not hesitate to stay again if future trips take us to Colorado!

Beautiful home with even more stunning views
We stayed at the property for 4 days/ 3 nights and loved it!! The house was a great size for 4 adults, and was far enough out of town to have amazing vistas, but close enough that we could go anywhere we wanted without issues. We were a little nervous about not having A/C during a Colorado July but the combination of fans provided and dark shades kept the house very cool and comfortable! The upstairs in particular is lovely, the kitchen was well stocked, and we had a blast!

A Hidden Gem
The house was very nice. Clean and well taken care of. The location is perfect. You can drive into the bowl of the Snuffel mountain range. Every corner you turn the area is beautiful. The best secret find was Top of the Pines. I have not seen anything like this view. Thanks for sharing. We will be back.

Enjoyable and We Will Stay Here Again
We really liked the entry level floor with its open floor plan. The floor length windows made it easy and enjoyable to watch the mountain scenery. The lower level with the bedrooms was neat and had everything we needed. Our host, Tammy was immediately on top of the one issue we had with the property. We will stay here again. The only thing I was disappointed about was that the Dish TV service had many channels but ESPN was not one of them. I also found the driveway entrance difficult to find since the house number was on the garage 15 to 20 feet below road level and you can not see it after dark with you car headlights. There is nothing on the road level to indicate where the downward angled driveway is.

No TV needed
We don't even know if the TV worked. We never turned it on, couldn't stop being mesmerized by the views thru the great bank of windows the house has. Took a little bluetooth speaker, listened to our music, read, gazed, happy-houred, walked our border collie (dog friendly) and had a perfectly chill week. This mountain property is great, very clean, comfortable, sunsets due west from the deck, starry, starry skies with a clear view of the Milky Way. Short drive to Top of the Pines Park with an exceptional view of the entire Sneffels Range. We thoroughly enjoyed and recommend!

Beautiful views
Beautiful views from the house and was nice to have a wrap around deck to enjoy the mountain air. They only con for us was the drive to ouray every day was longer Than we would like but we were there mostly for the off road trails. Ridgeway was about a10 min drive which is a great town and they have wonderful restaurants and a full grocery store. I can't really say a bad thing I mean we are from Nebraska and visit that area every year for the love it. Beautiful scenery and towns to enjoy

Great location
Nice, quiet, peaceful, dark sky neighborhood. Pretty drive from Ridgway with great view of the Sneffels Mountain Range. Close to Quray without being in the crowds. House is cozy, clean and has great views. No air-conditioning, but not needed as windows open and keep the house cool. Tammy is a great host with quick response time.
