About this property

Quiet vacation house on forested property in Ouray

Enjoy the best of beautiful Ouray and the surrounding wilderness at our vacation house that is within Ouray city limits but sits on a forested lot overlooking the Uncompahgre River. The river, and the river trail, can be accessed at the end of our driveway. The Ouray hot springs pool is a 15 minute walk from our house along the river trail. Our dining room looks out on Gold Hill where snow melt creates a waterfall in spring and early summer. Relax on our front patio in front of a nice fire or light up the bar-b-que and dine outside in the shadow of the San Juan Mountains. Shop and recreate in Ouray and return to a quiet home in the woods where deer often wander through the yard.

Description;

- three comfortable bedrooms sleep 7 people (1 queen upstairs, 1 bunk bed with twin up top and queen underneath upstairs, 1 queen downstairs).

- two bathrooms (upstairs and downstairs)

- washer and dryer

- Roku streaming TV service including Sling TV and Netflix(48' flat screen in living room, 25' in downstairs bedroom) and wireless internet

- coffee maker, Keurig, toaster, microwave

- gas fireplace

- ceiling fans throughout the house

- automatic dishwasher

- Because some of us have severe dog and cat allergies, we do have a strict no-pets policy. Our housekeepers will report any violations and guests will assessed a daily fee retroactive for their stay, plus extra cleaning fees, and fees for any damage the pet may have caused.

The entire house, including the kitchen, was more than fully equipped. This was a perfect house for couples, friends and small families. The fire pit in the front yard was fun for evening marshmallow roasts.We appreciated all the helpful communication and help provided by the host!

The location of the house was perfect. It was right across from the river so we could just walk on the river trail in to town and the hot springs everyday. We didn’t even need our car. The rooms and kitchen were spacious and kitchen appliances adequate.

About the host

Hosted by Carl Cockle

Host profile image

We are two brothers who live with our families in Southern California. Our parents retired to this part of Colorado and we have visited them every year since then. They own an antique store on Main St. in Ouray called RB Horse Trader and would love to have you stop by and say hello.

Why they chose this property

Over the years we have been overwhelmed by the natural beauty of this area and the quaintness and hospitality of Ouray so this year we purchased this house so that we would have a place to stay for years to come. Ouray and the surrounding area has so much to offer. You can hike, jeep, and climb until you are exhausted or you can just sit down and watch the aspen shimmer in the breeze.

What makes this property unique

We love this property because it is so close to the amenities of town and yet you can also enjoy a bit of seclusion. Our property runs about 100 feet up the hill behind the house. If you hike up a bit you will catch glimpses of wild roses and deer. The dining room has windows that stretch from end to end giving an unobstructed view of the dramatic canyon walls.
