Our roomy comfortable and well furnished home welcomes you to Pagosa; a modern yet characteristic moutain structure, custom design, custom built to our specifications. The house is decorated with original artwork, the fireplace is a work of art in itself.
Enjoy the magnificant views of the San Juan Mountains, sunrise to sunset from inside or outside the living room has floor-to-ceiling windows. Plenty of privacy and distance from neighboring houses. This is a house with character and history, originally built in 1973, remodeled completely in 1994.
Live in nature among lofty pines;feel at home in spacious rooms,open plan,two-level with open loft and cathedral ceiling.
Easily accessible and only a few miles from town (the back road 3 mile walk is really nice),shopping, restaurants and the Fairfield shopping complex yet you still have a feel of being secluded and surrounded by nature. Deer often pass by in the evening, birds and squirrels are ever present.
We are west of town 1 mile off of the highway, 2 miles east of the Fairfield shopping complex.
The walk to town takes about one and a half hours, walking slowly.
Our house is modern, tastfully furnished, homey and cosy; constructed of pine and cedar, in the western style with a European flair, (I have lived and worked in Europe for many years, I have brought back some aspects of European styling). The custom-built, river-rock fireplace flanked by the large windows and window seat dominates a comfortable living room (two Lazyboys and an over-stuffed couch). A loft with fold-out couch overlooks the living room. Central heating keeps the temperature very comfortable throughout.
THE KITCHEN area, a part of the main living area, was built with the active chef in mind. The cooking top is a gas Jenn-air, there is a full size oven, microwave, coffeemaker, toaster oven,and dishwasher. This is a modern kitchen. We supply basic supplies such as papertowels, cleaning supplies, some spices, salt and pepper.
FOUR ADULTS can be accommodated in two spacious bedrooms with one queen downstairs, and one double bed upstairs, 2 more on the fold-out couch in the loft. (max.occupancy 6)
The master bath has a Jacuzzi tub/shower, the guest bath, shower. All rooms are open and airy.
Cable TV, DVD and VHS. BROADBAND ON REQUEST
PETS may be allowed, but restrictions apply. We have had recent damage by a visiting pet so we are very cautious.
This is a NO SMOKING house, inside OR out. Any violation of this will cause the renter to lose the damage deposit. Due to fire hazard no barbecuing is allowed, year round, sorry. (there is a gen-air grill in the kitchen)
Please note that arrival and departure times must be arranged at least one week prior to your stay when we can meet you at the house.
We will respond to your request as soon as possible. In summertime I am not always able to get online everyday, please be patient! Thank you.

PAGOSA SPRINGS ATTRACTIONS
If you have never visited Pagosa Springs, then you will be delighted when you "discover" this great town and surrounding area. Still small-town, but offering what many more developed mountain vacation areas offer - more than anything else - Pagosa is beautiful and tranquil, friendly and unforgettable.
PAGOSA SPRINGS offers the quiet pleasures of the past plus every mountain activity imaginable. For a true glimpse of western life, you cannot top this Rocky Mountain town. Pagosa is still not like glitzy Aspen, thank goodness! The rural ranching feeling and friendliness is still present here. The focal point of the Pagosa signifies "healing waters" in the indian language and located right downtown are the wonderfully soothing hot springs. Pleasantly landscaped, natural, outdoor pools line the river downtown (only a five-minute drive) and are a welcoming end to a perfect day of outdoor activity.
There are hot-air balloon events in the winter and spring, rodeos, and seasonal local festivities. Consult the Pagosa or Wolf Creek website for more information.
Pagosa has the feel of rural Colorado and has not changed much in the years that our family has been here.
SUMMER ACTIVITIES
What is your pleasure? It is all here in Pagosa. Ask about bringing your horses, there is enough space to use an electric fence to coral your horses just below the house.
WINTER ACTIVITIES: Wolf Creek is a half hour drive from the house.
You are looking for good skiing? Wolf Creek Pass is still a little known wonder. When the rest of the state has average snow, Wolf Creek has powder, deep and light.
In every season, you will find beautiful scenery, plenty of activities and good weather. In this part of the Rockies there are at least 320 days of sun a year.
Our family moved here in 1976 after many visits. You may just decide to do the same.
We like to have people stay with us and enjoy our home. Please write with any questions. Our rates are not set in stone, make us a proposal.
NOTE: For iTRAVEX home exchanges: heating from September through May is extra.
Are you studying at the PARELLI HORSE TRAINING CENTER? Please inquire for special discounts for students of the center.
