Myself and 3 of my fishing buddies stayed with Jesse and Laura for 10 days and really enjopyed our stay. The house was spacious, comfortable and clean. Laura and Jesse were always available to help us with anything we needed. They are very knowledgable about the area and this was particulary help to us since none of us had been to the Gunnison area before. MANY THANKS to the Kruthaupts for all they did.

My family and I stayed here for 7 days, The house is spacious and very inviting. We enjoyed it even though we were not in a tourist area. No noise, no cell phone reception, which depends on how you look at it, we thought it was a great get away! All 7 of us would stay here again. The owners were very helpful and so nice. Not to mention a great price.
