A great location for our family getaway. We enjoyed the peace and quiet along with the mesmerizing mountain views. Enjoyed being so close to the North Rim of the Black Canyon.
This property was perfect for our family reunion. Plenty of space, and wonderfully stocked with what you need to house a large group- plenty of dishes, large pots and pans, lots of chairs and table space, etc. It was so peaceful there, and we spent a lot of time on the deck relaxing even though the inside was lovely, too!
Several of us come here once or twice a year to quilt and have time with each other. The facility is wonderful. The owners are so accommodating and easy to work with. A fantastic situation!
Great view of needle rock and the West Elk mountains! Big house for a good price. Love the big living room/Kitchen area with all the animal mounts. Would recommend anyone to stay there.
Stayed here when we came out to Colorado for a wedding.
It is a beautiful place with million dollar views!
I hope we can stay here again sometime.
The hosts are great people, very responsive to any needs!
Thank you, we had a great time.
This lodge is truly amazing and the views are spectacular. My family and I loved our stay here. It wa the perfect place for family and friends to gather after my dad's memorial service. My family and I hope to plan another gathering here in the near future.
Owner was very accommodating and easy to work with. Property was very well stocked. The home is in great shape and good working order. Nice place to get away from the cares of the world
Our stay at God’s Country was amazing and perfect for our big family. It had everything you could think of, plus some! The furnishings were rustic, the views were beautiful, the amenities satisfied all age groups, and the black canyon was beyond beautiful. Would highly recommend.
We enjoy this place so much! It’s big enough for us ladies to get together as a big group and get together in friendship and sew! We wake-up each morning and love the beautiful surroundings in God’s Country ❤️
Thank you for sharing this beautiful place 😊

Beautiful place!
When we first arrived, we were all wowed! The home had plenty of room for our group of 9. We all enjoyed exploring the Black Canyon and Ouray and spending our days relaxing at the home. It is a very family friendly home and a well maintained property. The owner and local caretaker were very friendly and responsive to our needs.
This property is gorgeous inside out. The property was very clean and well maintained. Everything was provided in abundance, be it bath towels or kitchen supplies. Once you step outside, serene mountain views can be enjoyed from the deck. We loved watching sunrise and moonrise during our stay.
Gorgeous home with an amazing view that also has great sized bedrooms and plenty of space to eat and relax. Well stocked kitchen of tools and even food basics. Remember how far you are here from grocery and gas to plan ahead. Can’t miss the sunrises and sunsets here.

This property was all it was said to be. It was clean and well maintained and the owner/manager was so nice and helpful to work with. Close to Crawford State Park and The Black Canyon of the Gunnison, it provide our Ladies Retreat attendee's opportunity for side trips in a comfortable and beautiful setting. I would most definitely recommend God's Country Lodge to anyone wanting a getaway no matter what the occasion. Can't wait for our next trip there.
