About this property

River Cottage

Located 7 miles west of South Fork on Highway 149 you will find a mountain cabin nestled in the trees overlooking the Rio Grande River. Our mountain cabin provides stunning views and exceptional natural beauty that only Colorado can provide. Enjoy your coffee on the deck as you listen to the river flow just footsteps away. Fishermen will love this location!
Two downstairs bedrooms sleep 4 guests with queen beds. Upstairs primary suite has queen bed and half bath. Sleep extra guests on sofa bed, or put sleeping bags in upstairs loft. Kitchen is fully equipped. Dining room looks out onto the deck in back that overlooks the river.
Follow the Rio Grande River along the Silver Thread Scenic Highway 17 miles to Creede and explore the town and silver mines. Or drive 30 minutes on highway 160 to Wolf Creek Ski Area which records the greatest average annual snowfall in Colorado.
Don't feel like driving? Relax on the deck with a drink and watch the fishermen in your group cast their lines. Stay out all day and watch the sun set behind the mountains..

About the host

Hosted by Steve and Sara Lowe

Host profile image
Both myself and my wife grew up in Colorado. I am a Firefighter in Arizona. My wife works for a major hospital system in the Phoenix area. We stay very busy with our son but do enjoy to travel and vacation as time allows.

Why they chose this property

My wife grew up in the San Luis Valley and her parents purchased the property when she was younger. She has many memories with the property as their family spent nearly every weekend and holiday there. We try to come back at least 2-3 times a year to enjoy the seasons that we miss out on living in Arizona to give our son the same memories.

What makes this property unique

You are only steps from the river on this property. We love to spend time on the deck and listen to the roar of the Rio Grande. Times spent at the cabin are relaxing and rejuvenating. It is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
