When you are finished soaking in the on-site hot tub, you can try the famous hot springs in Pagosa. An abundance of outdoor activities makes Pagosa Springs a nature lover's paradise. Lake species include rainbow trout, brown trout, largemouth bass, perch, and others.
River fishing is available in town on the San Juan River. The quality waters of the San Juan below Navajo Lake is world renowned for the incredible trout fly fishing. Trophy hunting is available in the San Juans. Wolf Creek Ski area boasts the most snow in Colorado, with an average of over 600 inches per year!
Come play in the mountains and stay in the middle of it all in Pagosa Springs. The Wolf Creek Ski Area is about 20 miles away and the main roads are always kept clean. This ski area gets more snow than any other ski area in Colorado, on average. You will not want to leave!

With its large bedroom/game room, which sleeps 3, it offers the perfect 'get away' spot for kids of all ages.

Reviews
VRBO Bear stayed here
Aug 16, 2011I had a wonderful time in this vacation home in Pagosa Springs with friends and family. The house, aptly called the "tree-house," was on two levels and each morning I awoke to breathtaking views of the trees and mountains and could listen to the myriad of birds just outside the windows. The hummingbirds were spectacular to watch as they were coaxed to the porch by two well-positioned feeders. It was a real treat for me to witness a double rainbow during my stay and enjoyed the refreshing mountain air I grew up on. Here I could completely relax. I especially liked being able to explore in the garden with the cubs and also visit the fishing lake which was only a 2 minute drive from the house. What a comfortable stay I had with my family in this spacious home. The young ones could watch TV in the playroom while the adults ate dinner around the dining table. Breakfasts were fun for the kids as they sat at the bar counter and were served from a spacious and well stocked kitchen. There were more than enough beds for everyone and even a pack and play for the littlest sibling. The hot tub was an added bonus and was enjoyed by all ages. One day we took the steam train from Durango to Silverton up the mountain pass and were thrilled to see the river and awesome scenery. The whole family had fun going down the river on tubes near the hot springs only 10 minutes from the house and finished off that day with an ice cream from a restaurant that came recommended by the owner. There were other useful tips about where to go and what to see that helped us make the most of our time in Pagosa Springs. The owner and his property management company were professional and friendly and made the stay extremely easy, enjoyable and memorable. I’m already longing for the mountains again and the view from the wraparound porch... The VRBO Bear
Wonderful!

Big peaceful treehouse 2017
This house was a great peaceful getaway. We went the end of July, beginning of August 2017. It was the time of year where you could get some rain in the afternoons but for the most part, we were okay with that. It was still a lot better than being in the TX heat. The views were nice, it was very quite, and we loved sitting outside and watching the deer and wildlife. The house was well equipped with all we needed so it was not necessary for me to bring paper towels, good kitchen knifes, etc. I wish I had brought however, some chairs to have to sit outside on the lower deck or by the fire pit and I also wish I had brought my hammock to hang in. The main floor had the kitchen, dining, den, master and closet/bath. Downstairs had the washing machine/dryer, two more bedrooms with queen beds, a jack and jill big bathroom and a large couch and chair, game table and TV. It also had bunk beds tucked around the side in case you needed extra sleeping space. Then the lowest level, probably the garage before they remodeled. Bunk bed with a queen, large couch, ping pong, and a bath separate from the shower with a dog tub. You can tell this house is family owned and loved.
The house # is hard to see so if you come at night, be well prepared to find it in the trees. We liked having it gated, our three-legged dog had a blast chasing deer and squirrels. After it rained the gate was a bit hard to open, but I'm sure that's a pretty easy fix. The hot tub we only used once, the jets did not all work and there wasn't a great view so I'm not sure that was worth the extra charges for us but all and all, very nice.
The drive into town was fast, seemed like five minutes. Our favorite spots were, Riff Raff Brewing Co., (best beer and best food), Tequila's, (Nachos and Margaritas) Farrago Market Cafe, (Goat cheese salad) and Ski & Bow Rack, (free fly fishing lessons on Saturday mornings) and we loved the people there. We did not like Kip's :( food was very bland). Best hike, Piedra Falls. The drive in is an hour but the hike is not too long and the end will take your breath away. Longest hike was Four mile hike. The drive took us about 45 minutes and the hike would have taken us two hours just to get to the fall but storm with high winds came on so fast, had we only made it half way. Trees started falling all around us and it was pretty scary but we had fun and wish we were able to finish.
Enjoy this great house, we sure loved it!!
This is a beautiful property. It is well maintained and stocked with everthing you might need.
We rented this home for a family vacation for 8. There was more than enough room for everyone. The house & views are beautiful. There were so many humming birds. There were many activities to do not far from the property. We really enjoyed our stay.
We felt like kids again! We didn't want to go home.
This was our favorite stay yet! The first night, the owners of the house called to make sure we made it okay and if we had any questions. VERY nice people, very personable! Their house layout was similar to a tree house. I felt like a kid again! We went with my husband and our two boys. The first night we had friends and family over. They ranted and raved about how cool the views were, how beautiful the house was, and how great the location is. We BBQ'd and ate on the deck and watched the sun go down and hit the tips of the trees and light up the field as the shadows started to mix in. It was PHENOMENAL! We hung out in the hot tub that night. The next day we spent it at the lake, which isn't even 5 minutes away, and brought our paddleboards and kayaks and fishing gear. Everyone else went home that day and we spent another few days at the house. We went to a local brewery in town, went shopping in the local shops, went to the kids park so they can play on the slides and swings, and walked the river walk. The kids spent a lot of their time either outside (the property is fully fenced in) or on the lower level of the house. The master suite and kitchen/living room is upstairs, which gave the adults their alone time but also gives the kids a chance to be loud when playing the table top board games that are included or watching their own shows downstairs. We spent most of our time on the wrap around deck (which can be fully enclosed with little gates for your dogs) and drank our coffee, watched the sunsets, and ate most of our meals out there. We didn't want to go home when the time came as we found so much peace there, and it felt so good to GET AWAY. We highly recommend staying here!
What a beautiful house with amazing views! Close to all activities but a quiet location.
We had 3 different families involved with our trip that totaled 6 adults and 5 children (ages 11-17). There was plenty of space for all to enjoy. Each set of adults got their own private bedroom with comfortable beds and the kids had plenty of options to choose from with 2 sets of bunk beds and a pull-out couch. The views are amazing and we got to see a few elk and lots of beautiful birds. The area is nice and quiet but close enough to town and activities (less than 10 minutes to downtown Pagosa Springs). All enjoyed the hot tub and fun activities in the game room. I would definitely come back to this house for our next southwest Colorado vacation.
Beautiful, quiet cabin!
We had a wonderful stay at the Treehouse!!! Lots of room for 2 families - 9 people total. The cabin had everything we needed and was a great home base to go into town, hiking, horseback riding and more. The lake is a few minute drive from the cabin but you can't see it from the house. You do have amazing views of the mountains! There is no AC but we had all the windows open and the fans on and we were fine. The owners were fabulous and checked on us when we got there as well as the day we checked out. They were very quick to answer any of our questions. We'd love to stay here again!!
Room with a view!
We had 12 people stay at the Treehouse from the 21st through 27th of June. 9 adults, 3 kids (7, 3, and 1). There was PLENTY of room for everyone and the bed breakdown fit our needs. The upstairs bathroom near the master is NOT a private bathroom so be prepared for that. Might have to throw something on to stumble around for the midnight pee.
KITCHEN: Very well stocked. Other renters appear to share things they don't want to take home so there's a good supply of spices and some non-perishable food. We left about 50 Otter Pops in the freezer so enjoy! Also marked things like maple syrup, peanut butter with the date we actually opened the package. Owners: There are a few things in the kitchen that need replacement. There were a couple of pots where the non-stick coating was coming off. This can get in people's food. Also, knives (for slicing tomatoes, onions etc) were dull. A knife sharpener would be good (unless there is one and I just didn't see it.)
BATHROOMS:
Plenty of room. Downstairs bedrooms are a Jack and Jill set up. Upstairs bathroom also has a storage room off of it. Great for storing paper towels, snacks etc.
GAME AREA:
Poker table, ping pong table. Hours of awesome. Especially when you send someone out to the Malt Shoppe for ice cream while you're playing. Plenty of books and board games. Parents- be forewarned, there is a Cards Against Humanity with the games. So you may want to move that if you don't want your pre-teens or teens playing that game. Very adult oriented.
DECK/OUTDOOR AREA:
Hot tub was great and well cared for. Shock and chlorine on site for maintenance. HUGE, wrap-around deck with ample seating. Grill is charcoal and is outdated. Previous occupants left it full of half burned charcoal and ashes. OWNERS- Last step going up the outside stairs at front of house has an exposed screw coming out of the step. Sticks up 1/2" or so. Tripping hazard especially for small children.
LOCATION:
This is the best part. It is secluded. It's off highway 84 at the east end of Pagosa so you are out of the main congested area of the town. The BEST restaurants are on the east side so you are close! For breakfast, Rose or the Peak. Riff Raff has best burgers and beer in town. Kip's has awesome tacos and nachos, Pagosa Baking for lunch and breakfast can't be beat. Fresh baked everything. Malt Shoppe has ice cream and burgers.
