House on 35 Acres with views of the La Plata Mountains to Mesa Verde National Park and The Four Corners. Hiking trails on site. Large deck for sunrise coffee and sunset dinners.

Kitchen item include a coffee maker, microwave, toaster oven all dishes and silverware.

The sun comes in the south facing widows in the morning which is a good time to look out for deer and elk.

Take a walk around the perimeter of the acreage in the evening during sunset to find pottery shards and see wildlife. Sleep well with cool nights at 7000 feet.

Beautiful Property

We loved staying here! Check in and check out was a breeze, communication was wonderful. But this location was just perfect for what we were looking for. Close enough to Cortez, Delores and Mesa Verde; but further enough out to be peaceful. We love taking in the amazing views on the deck and walking the property. We will definitely stay again if in the area!

Great Views

If you want great views and privacy this is the place for you. Centrally located to Mesa Verde National Park, Durango and the Million dollar highway. It’s a gem for the size and was perfect for our home base while we did sightseeing during the day. A peaceful retreat with wildlife out your front door.

Heavenly

This has been the best VRBO we have stayed in, owners have thought of everything. Amazing star gazing from the deck at night, nothing to obstruct the view. Very close to Mesa Verde, we did a lot of hiking and site seeing while here. I would recommend this to friends and family.

Great little get away!

Very quiet and secluded, except for someone being at the shop next door the whole time, we never saw them just heard them. Very clean, and host was always prompt to answer any questions. Only complaint, road was NOT ideal for a motorcycle, gravel very loose but is thankfully short! Overall VERY enjoyable stay, clean and comfortable !

The property manager uses the west side of the shop occasionally. The company truck gets parked there. My wife and I ride our enduros on that road with no issues. Now I know it’s too rugged for Harley types.

A very nice place!

The property is located about 2.5 miles from the little town of Dolores CO (which has moved upscale since my last visit with a really good cafe and brewpub). The property is just as pictured, but what can't be seen is the quiet. It's really quiet here, private and very peaceful, and it's a great base for exploring the area. Dean was a great host, responded to my one question about wifi, and I enjoyed my stay.

Wonderful cozy home

We truly enjoyed this home. The home has all the necessary amenities to make for a comfortable stay. It is secluded, quiet, well-maintained, clean and cozy. The owner was very accommodating and very pleasant to work with. The home is in close proximity to Mesa Verde National Park, the town of Cortez and town of Dolores. The home suited our small family of four very well. We look forward to a future stay!

Best Location Ever!!!

My wife and I plus 2 dogs stayed here for 2 weeks and we didn’t want to leave. The house is prime location to do allot of stuff in less than a hour. Close to Mesa Verde National Park, Durango, Telluride, Mancos and of course the local town of Delores. We enjoyed all of the above and Dean was a fantastic host and we didn’t need a thing. The house was equipped with everything we needed and the property was the best thing about it. 35 acres with paths that we used to walk the dogs around the property, deer everywhere and wild life. Dean was a great host and don’t hesitate to book this property and we will definitely be back!!!

What a Gem

This was such a peaceful setting! The star gazing is awesome. It was easy check in as Dean is very good about answering messages. The tiny house seemed much bigger than 400 Sq ft. It's a great set up with a laundry in the out building. He has everything you need there to cook and it was all spic and span! It's a great location to all your SW Colorado outings. We went to Mesa Verde National Park, 4 Corners, Hovenweep, Lowery Pueblo, The Musuem of the Ancients, and McElmos Canyon outside of Cortez. One more day would have allowed us to go to Telluride, but the weatherman said snow! Thank you Dean for having such a gem of a place! We defintely recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful stay.
