About this property

Lawless Rico: Engel Room

Lawless Rico is a boutique, loft-style property located in the heart of the San Juan Mountains in the eclectic hamlet of Rico, Colorado. Located in the iconic Dey Building built in 1892, Lawless Rico is a fully remodeled top-level property that spans the entirety of this infamous southwestern Colorado landmark. Built from local stone and timbers and in the fashion of Georgian architecture, this building showcases the craftmanship of a bygone era. From the local Doug-fir flooring to its bronze crafted door hinges, there are stories in the structure of this place. Step back in time (and in style)and enjoy ample space to spread out with your private bedroom, a shared library / work room, two full baths, a large kitchen with laundry and curated artwork throughout!

Each room thoughtfully blends Rico's rich mining and railroad past with nods to the neon cowboys that now call this authentic mountain town home. Situated above the Enterprise Bar & Grill (Colorado's 6th oldest operating bar!), Lawless Rico makes for the perfect basecamp for your San Juan adventures! Come enjoy world class mountain biking, hiking, fly fishing, backcountry and x-country skiing in one of Colorado's last true mountain towns. Telluride's world class ski slopes (and pricey accommodations) are just 30 miles up the road. End your day with a beer and a burger downstairs (or some darts in the lower-level speak-easy) before heading up to the comforts of a hot shower and a soft bed!

The Engel Room has a queen-sized bed, a Ponderosa Pine trunk bench and side tables, ceiling fan, dresser and sitting chair. Besides their own private room, guests have access to the shared library, full kitchen, and dining areas and two full baths located throughout the property.

Rico travelers will also be rewarded with tasty provisions at one of our two incredible coffee shops where caffeine and calories are served up daily! Make sure you make a dinner reservation at The Prospector where you will be blown away by a chef driven menu in one of the region’s most lovingly curated eateries! Lawless Rico guests are also invited to soak in the riverside hot springs that lie just above main street to put the exclamation point on a truly unique mountain excursion.

Rustic, convenient and comfortable

This property is nicely priced for what you get. It is conveniently located near cross country skiing (15 minutes away) and the access to a private hot spring is phenomenal. We enjoyed soaks in the hot mineral waters. This property is above a bar, but the noise levels were negligible when we went to bed. Be prepared for cool temperatures in the kitchen and bathrooms. Our room was plenty warm as it had a space heater.

We had a great time in Rico, but I will say that this experience isn’t for everyone. The property comprises of 4 rooms with two shared bathrooms and one communal kitchen. Luckily we were the only ones who had booked the place during our stay, so it was actually MORE than we needed. This would be an ideal space for a larger family whom is used to sharing a home together. The units are above the Enterprise Bar; and we thoroughly enjoyed our nightcap (4 nights in a row) with Jasmine and Dana. My husband and I sleep like rocks, so we didn’t mind the music from the patrons. But if you aren’t ready to party, you might want to check out another space. We never made it to the Hot Springs, but we hope to be back next year… so there’s still time!
