The host (Bob) was most gracious. The room was clean and orderly. We had our own parking and the room was accessible. It’s a beautiful venue with great views. Bob was very receptive and allowed for early check in and late check out. He’s a great host!

Pleasant Stay

Property was exactly as described and we enjoyed our stay. Had a beautiful sunset and enjoyed sitting on the porch having breakfast and coffee in the morning. Owner very responsive to questions when checking in. Great spot to use as a launching point to the north rim of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Would definitely stay here again if in the area in the future.
