Quiet, well appointed, and spacious home ideal for a working vacation. Gorgeous grounds and views. Dog loved it, too! Randal was warm and accommodating, and his updates on area road closures saved me hours of time and energy. Genuine, fine hospitality. I recommend staying here.
My wife and I had a wonderful time and our stay could not have been any better! Great location with an amazing view. The hosts went above and beyond and obviously care a great deal about their guests!
R Bar D Ranch was stunning where we had an experience like no other! Beautiful scenery and quiet, serene surroundings. Saw deer just about everyday. The cabin was just as it was explained in the rental summary and then some. Enjoyed walking our dog around the property. Randal was very communicative and it was a pleasure getting to know. Enjoyed his company and learning about the history of his property. We highly recommend this property and can’t wait to visit again!
We were so excited to find this property - the R Bar D Ranch cabin is wonderful- spacious, well equipped & comfortable with a beautiful back deck to take in the stunning view of the San Juan mountains and Mt. Sneffels. The deer are regular visitors & we enjoyed seeing them daily. Randal is the most welcoming and attentive host! It was a perfect base camp for us to play golf, hike, and visit Ridgway, Ouray and Telluride. I can’t wait to return. Many thanks to our hosts!
On top of this stay being a dream come true with breathtaking sights Randall was everything you would hope for in a host. I would highly recommend staying at this site.
This guest house, surrounded by some of Colorado’s best scenery, was itself beautiful, spacious, well appointed, and extremely comfortable. The host, Randal, has superbly thought out the needs of guests, and is quickly responsive to any questions. And if you would like suggestions on what to see or do in this gorgeous area, he has impeccable recommendations that will generate fond memories.
This was by far one of the best vacation homes we have stayed at. The well-maintained, luxury cabin and property far exceeded our expectations and Randal was an excellent informative host.
We would highly recommend this idyllic property to anyone staying in the area.
If you're looking for a quiet place to explore the San Juans, this is an incredible option. Perfectly appointed cabin on a ranch with tons of space. About a 10-minute drive down to Ridgway. The host, Randal, is super welcoming and available to answer any questions. Really a great place to stay in SW Colorado.
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful authentic log cabin. The property is well maintained and the setting awesome. Randal, the property owner, is nearby and is very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
We stayed for two weeks and loved every minute. Randal was accommodating, a great host but didn’t hover. The location of the property was quiet, the property was clean and an exceptional get away!!! We will stay here again when in the area.
My husband and I stayed for a week for our anniversary. We had an amazing time. It was exactly as described in the listing.We could not have been happier with our stay. Property was very clean, warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen well stocked. Randall was great at checking in, and always available if needed. There was so much to do there. We felled so welcomed. We will definitely be back.
We had such a great stay, having cocktails while gazing at the mountains, barbecuing on cools nights, watching the weather roll in on rainy days, and exploring the many hiking trails in the area. Randal and Debbie were exemplary hosts which made the stay that much more special.
Great property. Beautiful home. Great views. The owners go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable and cater to your needs. I would stay here again.
Exactly what we expected and hoped for with location, views, amenities, and snowshoeing. Owners were very attentive to our needs and helpful with recommendations. We would consider another visit in the future!
Wonderful property that takes you back in time but with modern amenities and great cell/internet service. Majestic views of multiple 14ers off the deck. If you are looking for a clean, quiet, and peaceful place with cool clean air, this is the place for you. Randal is a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to coming back soon!
Located about 10 minutes outside of Ridgway, the house is beautiful and has everything you need. Great location for day trips to Telluride, Ouray/Silverton and the Black Canyon. Loved the back deck and the outdoor seating. The owners were wonderful, helpful and responsive. 100% recommend and would definitely stay here again!
We had a terrific time in Ouray County staying at this great getaway. Randy is a lovely host, happy to help with anything. We had all the amenities we needed including deer at our back door. Can’t wait to return.
Randal is a lovely host who goes out of his way to make sure you feel welcome and have all the communication for the property and the area. We would definitely recommend this house, look forward to staying there again, and becoming friends with Randal and Deborah when we move to the area.
What a wonderful place. The cabin was charming. The view of the San Juan mountains and the sunsets were spectacular. It was such a restful place and so quiet. We needed a recharge and it fit the bill. Randal was so delightful - great communicator, very knowledgeable about the area, and such a nice person. We enjoyed our conversations with him. We hope to come back.
A perfect place to relax in the San Juan Mountains
This rental was perfect for our family getaway! The house was immaculate and had everything that we needed to feel right at home. The property surrounding the house is beautiful. We enjoyed watching the deer meander by each morning and evening. The owners were incredibly nice and were more than willing to help us find whatever we needed in the area. We've stayed at a lot of VRBO properties, but this one is the best so far!
We highly recommend this beautiful property. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and will likely be back. The house is a great Colorado mountain retreat and the location could not be better. The views from the property are simply stunning; Ouray, Telluride and Silverton are a short ride away so the scenery is just gorgeous. The host, Randal, was there to greet us and show us how everything worked, he was always available for questions. We cannot thank him enough for his hospitality. We have been to the area many times, but this was definitely our best stay.
Nestled in the Log Hill community, lies the picturesque R-Bar-D Ranch, with breathtaking views of Mt. Sneffels and the San Juan Mountain range. The guest cabin encompasses the true feeling of luxury mountain living with exceptional, warm hospitality. Waking up to the stunning mountain range, the smell of pine and deer meandering nearby creates the ultimate log cabin experience in the heart of Colorado. We are looking forward to our next stay within the following months.
