About this property
Sunny Modern Cottage by the River
The heart of Dolores: half a block from the river and river trails and about a block to the brewpub, bakery, and Co-op style grocer. Original hardwood floors, beautiful blue pine trim, and a new full bath, updated existing plumbing and electrical, and two mini-split heat and ac units. Two small bedrooms, one full sized bathtub and one standing shower. The length of the home faces south and picks up beautiful morning light. The kitchen is spacious with quaint original windows that deliver a lovely sunny space to make a French press coffee or cook a meal and runs parallel to the equally bright living room space. It really is a great place to wake up and relax before heading out for your days adventures!

We absolutely had a great time staying here. Very quiet and walking distance to a lot of places. Mama bears was so good. Very close to the river walk. I would stay here again. Very spacious and comfortable.

Thank you so much for your stay and we are so happy to hear you had a great time! Perfect time of year to visit.
We had a great stay here. The beds are super comfortable and the location is super close to the river and walking distance to grocery, brewery, etc. The place was super clean!
The house was perfect for my family of 6. We enjoyed our time there while still being able to explore the surrounding area. It was clean and well maintained and was exactly as listed.
Everything was as described in the listing. Clean rooms, bathrooms, and bedding. The kitchen is nicely appointed for cooking. The area is quiet. An easy drive to Canyon of the Ancients and Mesa Verde National Park. We had coffee at Lost Fox coffee shop and nice walk on the Dolores River path. Kelly’s Kitchen is a great place to eat. We would stay here again.
The home was very clean and beds were super comfy. The location can’t be beat right on the river trail. Morning and evening walks were delightful. Thank you for a relaxing stay.

Salt and pepper shakers obtained. :) Thank you for your stay Scott.
This is a lovely home in a very convenient spot. We enjoyed Mesa Verde and Four Corners and also had great meals at Montezuma and the Brewery. The river walk is lovely. We took it in both directions.Brewery.
A stone’s throw from the river trail, grocery store, restaurants, and park, the perfect jumping off place for us and our dog over a long weekend. So clean and bright. We didn’t miss having a TV at all. Would stay here again.
Such a wonderful little cottage in a great location! The river walk is steps away, cute coffee shops, groceries- everything you need close by. My husband and I stayed here with our daughter and grandbaby and it was a perfect amount of space. The kitchen is well stocked, beds were comfortable, entire place was spotless, showers are hot. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again if available!
